Welcome at the AStA-financial office!
We manage students funds, which are collected as part of the social tuition (Sozialbeitrag) that all students at bielefeld university pay as part of the semester tuition (Semesterbeitrag).
The semester tuition has three cost factors: the Studierendenwerk, the AStA and the semesterticket. As you can see ion the chart below, we spend most of the tuition on the semesterticket and not on other AStA services.
In the Summersemester 2024, the semester tuition split like this:
| Studierendenwerk | 106,00 Euro |
