In preparation for an appointment with the Diversity Officer or the Department 1: Registrar's Office is it helpful if you have already filled in the following form and bring it with you to the appointment.

Application Form

The following references are prepared by the German Student Services Office, Information and Consulting Centre Studying and Disabilities.
(Stand Berlin, 06.04.2017)

1. Semester Ticket

With enrolment at the University of Erfurt and every re-registration, a semester ticket for the public transport system of the Erfurter Verkehrsbetriebe (EVAG), the transport association of Central Thuringia (VMT) and the DB-Regio in Thuringia is included. Upon payment of the semester fee, all students can use their student ID (thoska) as a semester ticket (for prices, see the contribution regulations of the Studierendenwerk Thüringen) during the validation period printed on the thoska. The conditions of carriage are summarised in this document.

Exemption and Re-payment of these Fees in the Case of a Severely Disabled Person's Pass with a current token:

Upon request, the Studierendenwerk Thüringen will reimburse students with disabilities who are entitled to transport according to the law for severely disabled persons in the Ninth Book of the Social Security Code (SGB IX) and who provide proof of this (severely disabled person's ID card with the marks G, aG, Bl, Gl or H incl. supplementary sheet with valid token) for fees already paid for the semester ticket (reimbursement). According to the contribution regulations of the Studierendenwerk, applications for reimbursement must be submitted to the Studierendenwerk no later than one day before the start of the semester. Please use the application form for the refund of the Studierendenwerk fee for this purpose.

You can also be exempted from the fees for the semester ticket by submitting an informal application to the Dezernat 1: Studium und Lehre before enrolment or re-registration. For this purpose, the relevant evidence (copy of the front and back of the severely disabled person's ID card and a current token) must be enclosed with the application (exemption).

2. Housing/Accomodation

Are you looking for affordable accommodation tailored to your special needs for your studies at the University of Erfurt? The Studierendenwerk Thüringen manages several housing complexes directly on and near the university campus. If you have special requirements for your living space, e.g. barrier poor, you should contact the Studierendenwerk as early as possible. The Student Housing Department will be happy to help you find suitable accommodation.

3. Cost Assumption for Technical Aids

You can get advice on this, for example, from the European Independent Participation Counselling (EUTB)

or through the Eingliederungshilfe Erfurt

or your Health Insurance Fund

or through the Café B. The B stands for disability, counselling and civic engagement. Café B is an office community and serves as a contact, information and support centre for self-determined living for people with disabilities. The barrier-free premises offer good opportunities for low-threshold counselling in Erfurt.

Café B is the central contact point in Erfurt for:

- People with disabilities and chronic illnesses who want to find out about the personal budget, for example.

- People in need of care and their relatives

- People with and without disabilities who want to get involved in interpersonal, neighbourhood or neighbourhood activities.

Study with wheelchair

In principle, all teaching buildings are accessible for wheelchair users. For courses, we try to make the courses on the ground floor accessible to you. You should send us your timetable in good time so that we can take it into account when allocating rooms in Dezernat 1.
