10 reasons for the Thuringia Campus

Contact Information for BAföG Inquiries

Centralization of Incoming Mail

To effectively and promptly forward postal deliveries to the appropriate employees, the Office of Educational Support has reorganized and centralized its mail handling process. From now on, mail will no longer be sent to individual locations but will be directed centrally to the newly established service team.

The service team will review incoming mail and documents uploaded through BAföG-Digital and assign them to the electronic file. The previously required printing of incoming electronic mail is no longer necessary.

From now on, the new mailing address is:

Office of Educational Support  
PO Box 100 240  
07702 Jena

This mailing address applies to all students at Thuringian universities, regardless of their place of study. If another address, such as the previous one, is used, delivery will still be ensured, but it will lead to avoidable delays in mail processing.

Service Team for General BAföG Inquiries

The newly established service team is also available to all students at Thuringian universities by phone at 03641-5546 390. The service team is reachable:

Monday to Thursday: 8:00 AM - 4:30 PM  
Friday: 8:00 AM - 2:00 PM

The service team is happy to assist with general questions about BAföG but, to protect personal data, cannot provide specific answers regarding the content of individual funding applications or the completeness of submitted documents.

Further information on student financing and BAföG can be found online on our website.
