To the counselling centre
We support you in questions about barrier-free studies and everyday life
Our counselling services
How do I organise my disability-related needs during my studies?
What does compensation for disadvantages mean? Are there any special admission requirements for me?
Who can I turn to? How do I finance my studies and my support?
These and many other questions are asked by students and prospective students with very different impairments.
You can contact us if you have long-term health impairments.
In addition to mobility, hearing or visual impairments, this also includes impairments such as Crohn's disease, cancer, rheumatism, HIV, ADHD, autism, mental illness, dyslexia or other invisible impairments.
You can make an appointment using our contact information or the contact form.
Contact us in time!
In order to create the necessary conditions right at the beginning of your studies, it is advisable to contact the responsible advisor* at studierenWERK BERLIN early as well as the representatives for the interests of students with disabilities at the universities.
Further contacts, e.g. to the representatives for the interests of students with disabilities at the universities, other counselling centres or self-help groups can be found here (only in German).
You can find more detailed information for whole Germany from the Deutsche Studentenwerk here.
Inclusion support
Inclusion support services for students
The Counselling Centre for Barrier-free Studies has also taken on the task of awarding inclusion support services for students according to the Berlin Higher Education Act.
Applications for inclusion support services for students such as e.g. study assistants, book allowance or technical aids can be submitted here. Study assistance is granted to study applicants according to the impairment-related requirements.
What qualifies as inclusion support services for students?
Study assistants provide help e.g. with transcriptions, library researches or digitisation of texts.
More information on Study assistants can be found here.
Technical aids include needs-oriented supplementary equipment for laptops or PCs as well as other technical aids that are required for studying and for which no other social service provider bears the costs.
For the advice and application processing of technical aids is cross-university Ms. Bültbrune responsible.
Phone: 030 93939-9071
Costs for books and work materials can be subsidised as a flat rate, if a needs-based requirement is the case.
