- During part-time study, you will not receive any German state student grant or loan (BaföG), as your working time is not being fully used for studying (Section 2 no. 5 BAföG). Please obtain information from the BaföG office before applying for part-time study.
- The periods of study that you complete on a part-time basis will be counted towards the regular period of study.
- Part-time semester count as full university semester and half subject-related semester.

Final semester
