The funding commitment of private sponsors is usually limited to 12 months and is not linked to the length of the funded recipient’s studies. If a sponsor decides not to continue providing funding, then this decision will be for personal or financial reasons unrelated to the scholarship holder’s circumstances.

If funding for your scholarship is discontinued, then you will receive a notification from us by the end of the summer semester. You will then have the opportunity to reapply for the Deutschlandstipendium and will have to do so within the application period for enrolled students. The application period is usually announced here in May. As we adapted our application procedure since the funding period 2020/2021, we ask that you re-upload your documents in full.
