Student grants
The federal student grants can systematically be divided into two sections: direct study financing received in cash,
and indirect study financing which the student may receive by a transfer payment to the students’ parents, or
through non-cash benefits.
Direct student support is paid out in monthly instalments up to EUR 8 952 per year. The amount is assessed on
the basis of income and number of family members of the student, his/her parents and his/her spouse.
The grants need not be paid back except when proof of academic achievement is missing after the first two
semesters.
Loans
