Deutschlandstipendium

The Deutschlandstipendium is a unique opportunity for financial support during your your time at university.

It is awarded regardless of income and has no effect on your BAföG.

Half of the funding is provided by generous private sponsors, including companies, private individuals, foundations and associations, and the other half by federal funds. As a scholarship holder, you will receive a monthly grant of 300 euros.

The application period for the academic year 2024/25 has already ended. We will inform you in advance about the date of the next application period.

Please read the FAQs.

The monthly grant amounts to 300 euros. Depending on the period of approval, the funding period also varies. The grant is awarded either:

· in the respective winter semester (01.09.) and is then generally granted for one year (prerequisite for this is to study within the standard period of study including corona semesters).

· or in the following summer semester (01.03.): Students who are selected for a Deutschlandstipendium scholarship from the summer semester onwards initially receive an award for one semester and can apply for extension up to a certain deadline stated in the award notification.

for prospective students: particularly good average grade of the university entrance qualification with special consideration of the individual grades relevant for the chosen field of study

for already enrolled Bachelor students: proof of particularly good academic performance by submitting a current transcript of records

for already enrolled Master students: particularly good final grade of the previous degree programme as well as proof of particularly good academic performance by submitting a current transcript of records.

Please note: The application formalities were switched to the exclusively online procedure only shortly before the application period. As a result, the statutes still state the former modalities. You do not have to submit your documents in paper form, only the online application and the documents uploaded in the online portal are relevant.
