Why this is on your page
You have not told us anything yet.
These are properties of the record itself. Answer a question or two on the previous page and this section will say why it is relevant to you specifically.
- The provider states who may apply from outside the country.
Not enough information
What can honestly be said about your eligibility.
We cannot say anything useful about your eligibility for this yet. Tell us a little more, or read the official eligibility page.
Stage of education
We cannot assess this
From “in an undergraduate course” onwards. You have not told us where you are, so we cannot say whether that includes you.
Who may apply from outside the country
We cannot assess this
The provider states that applicants from outside the country may apply. You have not told us where you are, so we cannot say how that applies to you.
Settle this on the official page — Who may apply from outside the country
Being there in person
We cannot assess this
Attendance is required. You have not told us whether moving is something you would consider.
Basis of the award
We cannot assess this
Awarded on a basis the funder assesses against evidence we do not hold.
Other: Requirements set separately by each funding programme
The provider has not published this
We have not recorded whether this is needed. Read the official requirements rather than assuming either way.

3 of these could be settled by telling us more about you: stage of education, who may apply from outside the country, being there in person. Answer them on the explorer.
Requirements
What it asks for.
We have not recorded the requirements for this one. That is our gap and not a statement that there are none — the official page is where they are.
Requirements set separately by each funding programme
Other · Not recorded
We have not recorded whether Requirements set separately by each funding programme is needed for this. That is our gap, not a no — check the official requirements before you plan around it.
Cost and funding
What it might cost.
Cost
We do not hold cost information for this. Assume nothing until you have read the provider’s fees page.
We carry no fee figures anywhere on this site. A number here would be wrong across years and currencies before you read it, and it is the number a family decides on.
What this award is
Awarded on a basis the funder states on its own page.
Covers: The funder has not published what this pays for, on the record we hold.
You apply: by a route the funder has not stated on the record we hold
We hold no award amounts. A scholarship described as full by one funder covers tuition only for another.
Location and delivery
Where this is, and whether you would have to be there.
Based in Germany. Tell us where you are and this will say what that means for you.
The provider states that applicants from outside the country may apply.
Applying
What you would actually do.
We do not hold application dates for this. They are on the provider’s own page, and that is the only place they are current.
Something to find out
Read the official requirements yourself. Everything below is our reading of that page, and the page is what counts.
Something to find out
Find out whether Requirements set separately by each funding programme is needed — we have not recorded it, and this is a other that often decides an application.
Save this and you can tick these off, add your own steps, and keep them beside whatever else you are considering. It stays on your device.
Important considerations
Things that change what you would do next.
- This is a database of many separate awards rather than one award. What it covers, who may apply and when are set by each programme inside it.
- Public universities in Germany charging little or no tuition is a separate fact from any of these awards, and it does not mean living costs are covered.

Other funding and financial support
Only things of the same kind appear here. Putting funding beside something of a different kind would suggest you are choosing between them, and usually you are not.
