For fire protection and safety reasons, dogs are not allowed in public buildings. This also applies to all buildings of the Ludwigshafen University of Applied Sciences.

In Germany, all students are required to have statutory health insurance (1).

For this reason, prospective students/students must ask their health insurance company to notify the university at which they wish to enrol of their insured status before enrolling (and, if applicable, re-registering) at a university (2). The insured status is transmitted electronically to the university by the health insurance company.

How does this work?

  • Inform your health insurance company that you wish to study at the Ludwigshafen University of Business and Society (HWG LU) and ask for the electronic notification "M10" to be generated. State the "sender number" of the HWG LU: "H0000719".

    If you are privately insured , you must contact any statutory health insurance company with the request for an "M10" notification. They will then generate the electronic notification with the corresponding status.

    Students who have already reached the age of 30 at the time of enrolment do not need to submit an insurance confirmation.
  • If you change health insurance provider during your studies, the same procedure applies, with the difference that the new health insurance provider must generate a notification "M11"to the sender number "H0000719".
