Deutsche Bildung Student Funding
Studying should not fail for lack of money. Deutsche Bildung Student Funding enables students to realize their study plans at home and abroad - independent of their parents' income. It can be combined with other forms of education financing.
Young academics can apply for up to 30,000 euros for their study and living expenses through the study fund. Later, their income-based repayments to the fund contribute to the effectiveness of the Reverse Generational Contract principle, enabling new students to study.
To help you get off to an even more successful start, you will be trained, coached and introduced to a large network community.
