Deutschlandstipendium National Scholarship

The Deutschlandstipendium is Germany's national scholarship programme, launched by the German federal government in 2011 to support high-achieving students at German universities. It works as a partnership: each participating university raises donations from companies, foundations and individuals, the federal government adds the same amount, and the university itself selects the scholarship holders. There is therefore no single central application; each university opens applications for its own students once a year. The programme is open to all nationalities regardless of income, and it is a monthly top-up award, not full funding for your studies. Eligibility, funding, documents and the application link are on the opportunity page below.
