Studying with Disabilities

The FHNW welcomes students with disabilities.

It is possible to study at the FHNW with a disability or impairment. Students with a disability can apply for a disadvantage compensation that aims to eliminate any difficulties resulting from a disability.

The schools of the FHNW regulate the disadvantage compensation in their respective study and examination regulations. If you have any questions regarding adjustment measures to compensate for disability-related disadvantages, please contact the relevant office.

You can find more information on studying with a disability on the national platform swissuniability.ch.
