My bachelor's program of Freie Universtiät will end after this winter semester, I will apply for a consecutive Master's program at Freie Universität starting the summer semester after, can I receive funding for two semesters?
After completing a course of study (e.g. Bachelor's degree), you must normally re-apply for a Deutschlandstipendium if you are starting another study program (e.g. your Master's). If your Bachelor's program ends in winter semester and your Master's starts in the subsequent Master's semester you would usually have to wait for one semester to re-apply, since an application is only possible for the winter semester.
However, we created a bridging opportunity, which enables you to be funded for two semesters, instead of just one, by the Deutschlandstipendium (the last semester in your Bachelor's at Freie Universität Berlin (winter semester) and the first semester in your Master's at Freie Universtiät Berlin in summer semester). Please not that this only applies if your Bachelor's programs ends during the winter semester and you will start a consecutive Master's program in the next summer semester.
Please upload this form (only available in German) at the designated place in the online application system. You have to submit this form with your online-application for a Deutschlandstipendium. Please read the information in the application form carefully. You have to apply again for a Deutschlandstipendium for the second semester (winter semester) of your master’s degree.
