Studis Online is an independent web portal for everything to do with studying.

purpose

In the words of the operators, the basic idea of Studis Online is to “inform students and schoolchildren about everything to do with studying - independently and critically, also examining the background.” For this purpose, in addition to many service articles, which focus on the areas of study choice, study financing and starting your career are often reported on current university policy issues. There is a large forum for exchange between students and interested parties, which can still be used today without registration. The portal is financed primarily through banner advertising, Google AdSense and fee-based courses of study from universities.

history

Studis Online was developed by Oliver Iost in 1999, initially alongside his studies and has been looked after full-time by him since mid-2004, now together with his wife and other employees. As early as 2000, the first BAföG calculator available online at that time was made available, which made it possible to estimate the BAföG entitlement. To this day, BAföG and the entire area of ​​student finance are a focus of the website. Deutschlandfunk described the website as "one of the most informative internet offers for studying".
