Germany Scholarship
The Deutschlandstipendium embodies a culture of scholarship funding supported by the federal government, universities, and private sponsors.
It supports talented and dedicated students at our university. In addition to good grades and academic performance, social engagement and exceptional personal achievements—such as successfully overcoming obstacles in one’s educational journey—are also taken into account when awarding the Deutschlandstipendium.
Anyone who is enrolled at Zittau/Görlitz University of Applied Sciences or is making an application for a place at university is eligible to apply.
The Germany Scholarship amounts to 300 euros per month. Of this amount, 150 euros are provided by private sponsors such as companies, foundations, alumni, and other individuals. The remaining 150 euros are provided by the federal government. The Deutschlandstipendium is paid directly to the scholarship recipients by the universities. The funding is awarded regardless of income and can also be received in addition to BAföG (German financial aid for students).
Since 2011, Zittau/Görlitz University of Applied Sciences has participated in the Germany Scholarship program. For the 2025–2026 winter semester, our university was able to award 24 scholarships to students in various degree programmes.
