BAföG-Schnellantrag (“fast application”)

 

If you are under time pressure, for instance at the end of a month, you can fill in our BAföG-Schnellantrag and email or fax (089 38196-111) it.

By handing in this informal application, you can make sure to receive BAföG funding for the month in which we receive it. You nonetheless still need to fill in all the required forms and hand them in.

Don’t use the Schnellantrag if there is still enough time left to fill in the forms, for example, if you haven’t yet started your education. BAföG funding is only available from when you begin your education.

Please note: This does not apply for follow-up applications! In the case of follow-up applications, the full application (all forms) must be submitted two months before the end of your current BAföG support.

Additional forms

You can of course upload the forms directly.
