Germany: DAAD Scholarships for US or Canadian citizens

Study Scholarships, a year of independent study or a full master's degree program at a German university, are awarded to highly-qualified graduating seniors or those who have received an undergraduate degree in all disciplines.

Application deadline: November 15, 2009 (postmark) for applicants who wish to study during the upcoming German academic year (October 1, 2010 to July 31, 2011).

Study Scholarships for fine arts, architecture, music, and dance are also awarded to highly qualified students to study in Germany, or complete a postgraduate degree course and obtain a degree from a German higher education institution.

Application deadline: November 1, 2009 (postmark) who wish to study during the upcoming German academic year (October 1, 2010 to July 31, 2011).


Eligibility requirements:

Applicants in all academic fields are welcome to apply. For study in the fields of dentistry, medicine, pharmacy, or veterinary medicine, contact DAAD.
Graduating seniors (last year of undergraduate studies) must be enrolled full-time at an accredited university at the time of application. (Those who have already completed an undergraduate degree do not need to be currently enrolled.)
Recent graduates should have received their bachelor's degree no longer than six years before the application deadline.
Applicants should be US or Canadian citizens or permanent residents. Foreign nationals must have studied at an accredited US or Canadian university for at least two years by the time of application.
At the time of application, applicants must not have been resident in Germany for more than one year.
Applicants are requested to have a well-defined study project that makes a stay in Germany essential. Preference will be given to applicants who have been invited by a faculty member at a German university to study at a particular university department.
Applicants in the arts, humanities and social sciences should have a good command of German.
Applicants may not hold a DAAD grant and a grant from another German or German-American organization/German-Canadian organization concurrently for the same project. Prior recipients of a DAAD grant should contact DAAD New York before applying to determine their eligibility status.
Study scholarship holders are required to complete two courses per semester and obtain "Scheine" for them.

Award summary and conditions:

Graduate study scholarships are granted for one academic year (10 months) with the possibility of a one-year extension for students completing a full degree program in Germany.
Scholarships must take place during the German academic year (October 2010 to July 2011).
A very limited number of scholarship holders who receive seven to 24-month grants may be awarded a two-month language course grant. This language grant is decided upon by the independent selection committee and does not require a separate application
