BAföG rate of students in central higher education semesters

This rate indicates the number of BAföG recipients among those students who are potentially eligible for BAföG. In addition to students in the first six higher education semesters, this also includes master students up to their tenth semester. From reporting year 2012 onwards, only students in full-time courses are considered. The rate was introduced in the 20th Social Survey of the German National Association for Student Affairs (Deutsches Studentenwerk) implemented by Deutsches Zentrum für Hochschul- und Wissenschaftsforschung (formerly HIS-Institut für Hochschulforschung).
