Heinrich Böll Foundation Scholarships
The Heinrich Böll Foundation grants scholarships to undergraduates, graduates, and PhD students of all subjects and nationalities per year, who are pursuing their degree at universities, universities of applied sciences (‘Fachhochschulen’), or universities of the arts (‘Kunsthochschulen”). We expect our scholarship recipients to have excellent academic records, to be socially and politically engaged, and to have an active interest in the basic values of the foundation: ecology and sustainability, democracy and human rights, self determination and justice.
A) The following requirements apply to German citizens, EU citizens and students who have gained their university entrance qualifications from a German school:
The maintenance scholarships which are awarded to German citizens, EU citizens and students who have gained their university entrance qualifications from a German school will be calculated on the same basis as BAföG, depending on your parent’s income and/or your own income and personal assets. Irrespective of this, an independent book grant of 80 € per month will be awarded to all successful applicants.
You are entitled to receiving a scholarship if you are enrolled at a state or state-recognized institution of higher education (university, college or equivalent) in Germany, Switzerland or in a member state of the EU.
- Earliest application date: if you intend to enroll for a Bachelor degree, for a Diploma, Magister or State Examination, you can apply for a scholarship before your studies begin, but the earliest date for receiving payment will be the beginning of the first semester. We advise you to make your application in time for the start of your studies.
- Latest application date: within the prescribed maximum period of study you should still have at least four semesters before your final examinations. That way, the foundation can support you for at least three semesters past your successful application.
The scholarship is open to undergraduate students, only. Graduate students in a Master's programme can only receive a scholarship if they have previously been funded by Heinrich Böll Foundation during their undergraduate studies.
B) The following requirements apply to foreign applicants (except EU citizens) who wish to study in Germany:
You must be enrolled at a state-recognized university in Germany at the time the scholarship payments begin.
- You should provide proof that you have already graduated with an initial professional qualification. This programme mainly supports students aiming for a Masters degree.
- You need a good knowledge of German, and we kindly ask you to provide proof of your proficiency. Please note that the selection workshop (interviews, group discussions) will normally be in German. Exceptions (interview in English) are, however, possible.
- Unfortunately, the current guidelines specify that we cannot support foreign scholarship holders for stays abroad in third countries for more than four weeks.
Application Deadlines: by 1 March or by 1 September
