Eligibility

German Students

Eligible to apply are all currently matriculated students of the University of Freiburg. Also eligible to apply are beginning students or students currently enrolled at another institution who will take up or continue a course of study at the University of Freiburg in the next summer semester but are not yet matriculated.
Beginning students who are waiting for a letter of acceptance from the Foundation for University Admissions (formerly the ZVS) may also apply for the Deutschlandstipendium with their school-leaving certificate (Abiturzeugnis).

International Students

International students are also eligible to apply for a Deutschlandstipendium at the University of Freiburg. Make sure to submit all of your application documents and certificates in English or German. If you have documents in another language, please enclose a copy of the original along with a non-certified English or German translation. It makes no difference who does the translation.

Both German and international students are eligible for funding, as long as they are matriculated as degree-seeking students in an undergraduate program or master's program at the University of Freiburg or have applied for admission to such a program but are not yet matriculated, but will be matriculated for the following summer semester.
