Overview

Overview

Programme Description

The Deutschlandstipendium supports new or advanced students of excellent academic and professional promise. A wide net is cast to include all talents and potential: good grades and an excellent academic record, the willingness to take responsibility or the successful overcoming of obstacles on the candidate's personal or educational path. The funding of 300 EUR is granted irrespective of the student's income (in addition to BAföG funding) for a period of at least 2 semesters and at most until the end of the standard study period, thus giving the students the opportunity to focus on their studies. One half of the scholarship is financed by the Federal government, the other by private donors. The selection committees of the specific higher education institutions decide upon the allocation of the scholarships.
