Studying with a disability or chronic illness

Support during your studies

Starting a degree programme, exploring a new city, learning new material, passing exams – these are challenges that every new student faces.

However, for students living with a disability or chronic illness, the path from enrolment to successful graduation requires far more effort and includes the added challenge of overcoming various barriers.

The University of Freiburg offers a range of information and advisory services to enable its students with disabilities/chronic illnesses to participate in student life as equally and independently as possible and to support them in completing their studies.

We are happy to advise you on support options during your studies, provide a listening ear, or mediate in the event of a conflict.
