Loans are primarily intended for students who, through no fault of their own, have temporarily fallen into an economic emergency situation. Here, the Studierendenwerk Tübingen-Hohenheim provides quick and uncomplicated help.

As the Studierendenwerk provides security to the savings bank, a counter-guarantee from a German citizen must be provided to guarantee the loan repayment; this person may not be older than 65. Foreign guarantors are only recognised if they have their permanent place of residence in the Federal Republic of Germany.
The security must be submitted in a formal declaration – and the guarantor’s signature must be verified by a seal-bearing authority or by the person processing the case at the Studierendenwerk. Seal-bearing authorities are notaries public or local authority, state or federal offices. Any other verification of signatures will not be recognised.
Each guarantor must have a regular income, which at least corresponds to the amount that matches the allowances set in Section 25 of the §25 BAföG Act at the time when the application is made. Evidence of this must be submitted with the application for the loan (salary slips or notification of income tax).
The following cannot act as guarantors:
– Students
– The husband or wife of the applicant
– Those with debts with the loan office
Any enrolled students at the universities assigned to the Studierendenwerk Tübingen-Hohenheim are entitled to apply for this loan.
An application for a loan should be submitted on the relevant form to the Studierendenwerk, Amt für Ausbildungsförderung, Listplatz 1, 72764 Reutlingen (see Contact details).
The loan is disbursed by bank transfer.
