About this scholarship

The Deutschlandstipendium is a national program where individual German universities award a modest monthly stipend to talented students, funded jointly by the government and private sponsors — a good complement to a low-cost German tuition plan.

Eligibility

  • Strong academic record, typically top of your class or cohort
  • Open to both German and international students, including Bangladeshis
  • Some universities also weigh social engagement or personal circumstances

What it covers

  • €300 per month, paid for at least two semesters
  • Stackable with most other scholarships and part-time income
  • No repayment required — it's a grant, not a loan
  • Access to sponsor networking events at many universities

How to apply

  1. 1Confirm your German university participates in the program
  2. 2Check that university's specific application window and criteria
  3. 3Submit transcripts, a short motivation letter and CV
  4. 4Apply directly through the university's student affairs office
