Due to the corona pandemic, students in Baden-Württemberg will have more time for their exams and studies.

The state parliament decided on Wednesday to further extend the examination periods at the universities at the request of the coalition factions of the Greens and CDU.

This is intended to compensate for delays in the winter semester that has already started.

Stuttgart - The regulation is to be extended to new students in the summer semester 2021 and the winter semester 2021/2022.

"Some students suffered from online teaching and postponed exams because they did not feel they could prepare well enough," said Science Minister Theresia Bauer (Greens), explaining the decision.

This does not affect all students.

"But it is a matter of fairness to allow an extension in the current semester," she said.

With three online semesters, a lot has already been expected of the young people.
