Trans/intersex/non-binary students can use their self-chosen first name at the Bauhaus-Universität Weimar, regardless of whether an official name and civil status change has been completed or is being sought in accordance with the so-called »Self-Determination Act« (SBGG) or in accordance with the applicable legal regulations of other countries whose citizenship they hold.
To this end, the student's first name and gender entry are changed in the student database. The university's internal identification and service card (Thoska), the official email address (@uni-weimar.de) and documents such as semester certificates and transcripts are then issued in the student's chosen first name.
Trans/intersex/non-binary students are able to indicate their self-chosen first name and affirmed gender when they enrol. A change of first name and gender entry can also be requested during the course of the degree programme.
To apply for a change of first name and gender entry in the student database, please use the following form:
If you have any questions about the procedure, please do not hesitate to contact the Student Office of the Office of Student and Academic Affairs:
