Travel allowance

Travel allowances for recipients of study grants are granted in three variants:

  • General travel allowance for trips to the place of study using public transport,
  • Commuter allowance for the daily commute to the place of study and
  • Home travel allowance for students whose permanent place of residence is more than 200 km away from the place of study.

There is no legal entitlement to a travel allowance. Further details can be found on the information page of the Studienbeihilfenbehörde (german).
