Second extension of the standard period of study

Last updated 5. March 2025 | Sprecherinnen

The second extension of the standard period of study has now been announced by the Ministry of Science and Culture. The SPD and CDU have agreed on the second extension in the government, but it will come in the last few meters of the winter semester 20/21.
We are pleased that, among other things, the LAK petition has had an effect. However, our solidarity semester demands go beyond the extension of the standard period of study!
As far as we know, the second extension will only apply to students who have not yet exceeded their standard period of study before the pandemic.
This was not restricted in the first regulation, we cannot understand the reasons for this.

The LandesAStenKonferenz has written a statement on the renewed extension of the standard period of study. You can find it here: Petition successful – second extension of the standard period of study not for all?
