Benefits under the Federal Training Assistance Act - BAföG

The Federal Training Assistance Act (Bundesausbildungsförderungsgesetz - BAföG for short) regulates the support provided by the Federal Republic of Germany, particularly for students. The right to funding under the BAföG depends on many factors, including parental income and assets and academic success. You can obtain advice and information from the BAföG office of the Studierendenwerk Dortmund.
