In addition to financial support, many scholarships also offer non-material support, such as networks, seminars and personal support. The University of Lübeck provides comprehensive information and advice on the various offers and assists with the application process. This enables students to find the right scholarship for their individual path.
There is a scholarship database on the DAAD website which you can use to search for the latest information on scholarship offers.
The following DAAD information brochures are also available to take away from the International Office: "Study, research, teaching abroad / funding opportunities for Germans".
The University of Lübeck cannot provide full funding for the entire duration of your studies. For this purpose, please follow one of the two links (DAAD database and StipendiumPlus database).
The scholarships for particularly committed students and doctoral candidates are awarded to foreign students at the University of Lübeck from DAAD funds as part of the STIBET I scholarship program.
The prerequisite for funding is that the students and doctoral candidates have performed well, but have also distinguished themselves through outstanding commitment in an international context at their university.
The grant covers approx. 400 euros per month for a total of 4 months.
The application deadline is 15.08.
Please submit your application to the International Office.
Application - Scholarship for particularly committed students and doctoral candidates
Foreign students who are NOT from an EU country can apply for a financial bridging grant while preparing for an exam.
Students who are married to EU citizens or have a permanent residence permit for an EU country are NOT eligible to apply.
Upon application, the Rectorate of Kiel University grants foreign and stateless students a grant towards living costs (bridging grant) for the preparation for a final examination (in exceptional cases also for the preparation for an intermediate examination, e.g. the Physikum).
This is possible if applicants can prove that they have completed a proper course of study with the prospect of a successful degree and if it is clear that they have got into financial difficulties for reasons for which they are not responsible or could not have foreseen.
Application documents can be collected from the International Office. Please ensure that you apply for the scholarship in good time (3 months before the start of funding).
Please submit the completed application form and a current transcript of records to the International Office.
