OVGU Student Council (Studierendenrat)
The student council (Studierendenrat) consists of 15 students who are elected each year by the student body of the entire university. A portion of your semester fee (€11.50 of €129.90) goes directly to the student council then disperses these funds to the faculty-student councils of each faculty, in addition to various student initiatives that may apply directly for funding from the student council.
Contact the student council regarding legal matters pertaining to academics, or submit an application to fund a student initiative. The student council provides a variety of services and support, also through their ‘departments’ (Referate). They also cover the cost of an initial legal advising consultation with a lawyer for all students.
