What is the Germany Scholarship?
The Germany Scholarship supports talented and dedicated students at the Zittau/Görlitz University of Applied Sciences. In addition to good grades and academic performance, the award process also takes into account social engagement and exceptional personal achievements—such as successfully overcoming obstacles in one’s educational journey or volunteering with organizations. Awards and prizes received are also considered. In addition to academic performance, the focus is on the student’s character.
Even if social engagement in clubs and organizations or active participation—for example, in university committees—may be on hold due to the current situation surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic, it’s still worth submitting an application. Or perhaps these activities have really gained momentum, especially during this time? Interested students and incoming freshmen should take advantage of this opportunity and apply for a Germany Scholarship.
Anyone who is enrolled at the 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 that amount, 150 euros are provided by private sponsors such as companies, foundations, alumni, and other private individuals. The remaining 150 euros are provided by the federal government.
The Germany Scholarship is paid directly to the recipients by the universities. The scholarship is awarded regardless of income and can also be received in addition to BAföG (German financial aid for students). The standard award period covers one academic year (September 1, 2020 – August 31, 2021).
