Corona Pandemic - Financial Aid

The Federal Republic of Germany provides financial aid to students who are in a desperate situation because of the Corona pandemic. Depending on the proven need, between 100 euros and 500 euros can be paid by Studentenwerk as a non-repayable grant.  
German as well as international students who are enrolled at Martin-Luther-Universität Halle-Wittenberg and who are not on leave of absence can apply online for the interim financial aid from  Studentenwerk Halle.

Incorporated Society of Help for Foreign Students

The aim of the registered association “Haus,” founded in 1994, is to help international students of the Martin Luther University, who are in financial distress. Funds are collected from membership fees and donations. After verification of the student's situation, the financial help is administered at short notice and unbureaucratically, for example by temporary payment of rents, health insurance, and subsistence money prior to intermediate and final exams, etc.
