Around 16 per cent of all students in Germany have a health condition that makes their studies more difficult (according to the results of the best3 student survey). Consequently, this also affects a significant number of students at the H-BRS.

As commissioner for students with disabilities or chronic illnesses, I am here to advise you on any questions or concerns you may have in this regard. This may, for example, relate to the issue of reasonable accommodations (Nachteilsausgleich). I can assist you with the application process.
If you have any other questions about managing your studies, or if you encounter barriers that make your studies more difficult, please do not hesitate to contact me!  If necessary, I can help you get in touch with other relevant support services.

This service is aimed at both currently enrolled students and prospective students..

Application for reasonable adjustments (Nachteilsausgleich)

You should submit your application for reasonable adjustments to the examination board for your degree programme. Please also check the relevant provisions in your exam regulations. Find out as early as possible when the application needs to be submitted. A certain amount of time is required to assess applications and implement the necessary measures.
