Scholarships

Students of the University of Siegen can apply for many different scholarships. In general, German institutions of higher education do not themselves award scholarships. There are, however, several scholarship-awarding organizations in Germany. For students from foreign countries, a database of these organizations is provided by the DAAD (German academic international office). A German website which provides an overview of available scholarships can be found here.

Last but not least, the Studienförderfonds Siegen e.V. awards scholarships especially for students of the University of Siegen.
