If you are enrolled in a degree program at Freie Universität Berlin offered in partnership with other universities (find a list of all these degree programs here), the following applies:

You can only apply for the scholarship at Freie Universität Berlin if you will be enrolled as a student at Freie Universität Berlin as your primary place of study during the funding period you are applying for and your administrative fees and contributions are paid to Freie Universität Berlin. If you are unsure about which university is your primary place of study, contact the examination office in your department. If Freie Universität Berlin is not your primary place of study, you may check with your primary university if they award Deutschlandstipendium scholarships and apply there.

If your grades obtained at a cooperating university are not automatically listed in Campus Management at Freie Universität, please attach to your application, in addition to the transcript of records from the Campus Management of Freie Universität Berlin, a preliminary grade report including the grades converted into the German grading system. Please do not submit transcripts of records in a foreign language. To obtain the converted grades, please contact the administrative office responsible for your degree program.

With regard to application periods, the Deutschlandstipendium program calculates your subject semester in terms of the entire degree program, not just the subject semesters spent at Freie Universität Berlin.
Example: You are studying in a double degree program in which you spend the first two semesters abroad. During this time, you are enrolled at Freie Universität Berlin but you are on leave of absence ("beurlaubt"). If you now want to apply for a Deutschlandstipendium for your third semester in the program, but it is only your first official subject semester at Freie Universität Berlin, you still must apply during the application period for enrolled students in a higher semester.
