If you decide or have decided to study at one of the colleges/universities of Regensburg, Passau, Deggendorf or Landshut and would like to apply for BAföG (educational funding), you can contact us, the Amt für Ausbildungsförderung (Office for Educational Funding) of the Studierendenwerk Niederbayern/Oberpfalz.

The Amt für Ausbildungsförderung is responsible for the following educational institutions:

• Universität Regensburg
• Ostbayerische Technische Hochschule Regensburg (OTH Regensburg)
• Hochschule für katholische Kirchenmusik und Musikpädagogik Regensburg (HfKM)
• Ausbildungsinstitut für Verhaltenstherapie Regensburg (AVR)
• Universität Passau
• Technische Hochschule Deggendorf and its locations such as European Campus Rottal-Inn Pfarrkirchen
• Hochschule Landshut
• Technische Universität München (TUM) Campus Straubing

BAföG is a low-cost way to finance studies, because within the standard period of study, half of it is granted as a non-interest-bearing loan and half as a scholarship, i.e. one half is given as a gift!

You can find more information about BAföG on our homepage.

Information flyers can be found in our download area.

You can find further information on the subject of BAföG:

- on the website of the Bavarian State Ministry for Science and Arts

- on the website of the Federal Ministry of Education and Research

Personal consulting on site

You have the option of making an appointment for a personal consultation on site.

In order to avoid waiting times and thus larger gatherings of people in front of the offices, in the corridors and in the Studentenhaus, we offer you the option of making appointments via the calendar. This means that we ask you to reserve an appointment in your calendar and come to us for a personal consultation during this time.
