Due to the rapid spread of the COVID-19 disease, universities all over the world had to change their teaching strategy from on-campus education to online education. The change was dramatically sudden. This was not only a pedagogical challenge, but also an issue concerning e.g. the technical infrastructure, both at the universities as well as for the students. This summer term all our students studied online. However, half of the students in the M.Sc. program High Integrity Systems at Frankfurt University of Applied Sciences, were in Germany and studied online, whereas the other half of the students were stuck abroad and therefore studied online from other countries. We decided to compare the basic study conditions for online tuition for our students in Germany with our students abroad. The preliminary results are presented in this paper.
