Information on studying with a disability

Special arrangement measures

Depending on the situation, measures may be required to compensate for the disadvantages of students with disabilities.

Usually, these measures concern performance assessments. It requires a consultation at the Counselling & Coaching Centre and then an application for special arrangements. If additional aids are needed during the semester, students must inform themselves in the counselling appointment whether an additional applicaiton for special arrangements is required.

The goal of such measures is solely to compensate for the disadvantage resulting from the disability. With all measures, the main content related requirements of a course/examination must be fulfilled and the degree must remain equivalent.
