BAföG
BAföG is the cheapest way to finance your studies. Where, for example, can you receive more than 50,000.00 euros in funding and only pay back a maximum of 10,010 euros?
With BAföG, because half of it is paid as a grant - which does not have to be paid back - and the other half as an interest-free loan, which means that you only have to pay back half of the money you receive later, up to a maximum of 10,010 euros.
Individually fitted to you: The amount of funding is personalized for you, as your individual life situation determines the exact amount in detail. No two calculations are the same! So don't compare yourself with others, submit your own application!
