Germany Scholarship 2025
The next call for applications for Germany scholarships at the University of Hamburg for funding from January to December 2025 will take place from October 15th, 2024 to November 5th, 2024.
Students at the University of Hamburg can only apply during this period, only online and only if you are enrolled at the University of Hamburg.
On this page you will find a list of the criteria according to which applicants are selected for a Deutschlandstipendium. The criterion “performance and talent” weighs the most. Your chances of receiving a scholarship are best if you meet all the criteria.
In the right menu bar under "Application steps" you will also find detailed instructions on which documents to submit and how you can apply. Please read these thoroughly and completely before contacting us with any questions.
From October 15, 2024, we will publish a list of all available Germany scholarships for 2025 on this website with an overview of the degree programs in which scholarships are offered and an overview of the sponsors who provide these scholarships. You apply to the UHH Germany Scholarship Office. The UHH assigns the selected scholarship holders to the sponsors.
Applicants will be informed at the end of January/beginning of February 2024 whether they will receive a scholarship.
Kind regards,
the team at the UHH Germany Scholarship Office
Application period
The the Germany Scholarship and its selection criteria
The Germany Scholarships are monthly scholarships, provided by the Federal Government and private sponsors (companies, foundations, associations, individuals) for students who are enrolled at the UHH and
- have very good school and / or academic performance
- are involved in volunteer work / social engagement
- have difficult access to studies (so-called hurdles in the educational biography such as origin from a non-academic family, financial circumstances, migration or refugee background, illness, disability, caring for their own children or relatives in need of care, etc.)
- deal with the topic of "sustainability" in the broadest sense.
Anyone who receives a Germany Scholarship should be interested in keeping contact with his or her sponsor. Another requirement is the willingness to participate in the accompanying program.
High-performing students with a refugee background who are enrolled at the UHH can also apply for Germany Scholarships at the UHH.
The Germany Scholarships are advertised across the university at UHH each October/November. Outside of these application deadlines, you cannot apply and consultancy is not available.
Students who don't want to miss and would like to be informed about the start of the next application round, please send an email to deutschlandstipendium"AT"uni-hamburg.de.
The Deutschlandstipendium is granted for one year. However, it is possible to apply for an extension. If the extension is approved and applied for again after one year, students can be financed over several years until they complete their studies.
