Scholarships in Germany for International Students
Germany is now a popular destination for international students seeking an education abroad. German Universities offer their students internationally recognized programs at an affordable price compared to the UK, USA, or Australia.
Furthermore, there are a particular number of available scholarships in Germany for only international students to study in Germany for free without paying a dime.
In October 2014, all Universities in Germany will not charge any tuition fees for undergraduate studies. For some Federal States, Universities will charge a semester contribution (about 50-55 euros) and/or administration fees (about 100-320 euros). This kind of tuition fee structure has the tendency to change from what it used to be with time.
Endeavor to check this page for updated information on tuition fees in different federal states in Germany.
For instance, the federal state of Baden-Württemberg is charging tuition fees (for Bachelor’s, Master’s, Diploma, and state examination degree programmes) of €1,500 per semester for non-European Union citizens.
Unlike undergraduate studies, most Master’s or PhD studies in Germany are fee-based. The price for postgraduate studies is in addition to the engagement and confirmation fees.
Fortunately, there are still a good number of scholarships for Masters and PhD study in Germany.
