The Austrian Student Aid Foundation (de: Österreichische Studentenförderungsstiftung) is the second largest carrier of student housing (de: Studentenheime (denomination in Austria) respectively Studentenwohnheime ( denomination in Germany)) in Austria.
It is a not-for-profit foundation serving the public good. home4students is the trademark of the foundation, which has 80 employees and administers 16 dormitories[1] in Vienna, Graz, Salzburg, Klagenfurt and Innsbruck for around 2,000 students[2] who live in various arrangements (rooms, flats, and flat-sharing communities).
History
editOn 6 May 1958 the central committee of the Austrian Students' Association (de: Österreichischen Hochschülerschaft) decided to establish the Austrian Student Aid Foundation.
By official notification on 25 May 1959 the “Stiftungsbrief“ (letter of foundation) was approved by the authorities. On 9 July 1959 the constitutional meeting of the "Kuratorium" (Board of Trustees) of the Austrian Student Aid Foundation was held and thereby officially founded.[3]
Objectives
editThe objective of the foundation is to "actively support students and higher education all across Austria." [4] The foundations activities aim at students who
- at the time of their application, are registered with a university or are in their absolutorium,
- are Austrian citizens (this requirement was abrogated by decision of the "Kuratorium" (Board of Trustees)),
- have a successful progress at university
- are indigent.[5]
The objective is to be fulfilled through
- providing affordable living space for underprivileged students[6]
- the administration of living space
- the awarding of scholarships
