You will also receive information about the opportunities that exist and how to access these and other benefits, such as various degrees of assistance that the University provides.
The FUB has no architectural barriers in any of its buildings (Bozen/Bolzano, Brixen/Bressanone, Bruneck/Brunico).
Disabled access is also guaranteed for most of the student residences and canteens.
If you have a disability of more than 66%, you are eligible for complete
exemption from university fees: the
disability certificate, issued by the health authorities, should be presented at the beginning of the academic year.
Further, in addition to the normal assistance (grants, etc), the
University and School Office of the Autonomous Province of South Tyrol has other
special assistance available.
According to the type of disability, this assistance could consist of financial aid for a home help, travel expenses or other help with transport.
According to your income, there is also financial help available for expenses incurred. Income assessment is based on criteria that are fixed every year by the provincial government.
