Application Information
As a scholarship holder, you support us as our ambassador to reach out to students from all over the world. In detail, we therefore ask you to do the following:
▶ During the Summer Schools, you will be featured in media appearances.
▶ After the Summer School, you will provide us with a written testimonial.
▶ Back at home, you will share your experience with your student community. You can do this e.g. by giving a lecture at your home university or by posting on your own blog.
Note: Please outline your ideas in your motivation letter.
Application documents
The following documents are required:
✓ Your cover letter (stating your motivation for applying to the program, further study plans and career goals, ambassador role)
✓ Your curriculum vitae (resume)
✓ Your academic records (transcript of records)
✓ Letter of Recommendation
✓ Additional documents to support your application (e.g. certificates for (extra)curricular activities)
✓ A color photo of yourself
Please note:
Should you apply for one of the scholarships, you have to add a letter of recommendation. The letter of recommendation can be issued by a university professor/lecturer or by a superior from your employment. There is no standard form or format for the letter of recommendation required.
Once you submit your application, you will receive a confirmation via email. Your application will be assessed carefully and you will hear from us soon. Thank you for your patience.
Since we can only offer a limited number of Scholarships it can be possible that you might not receive a Scholarship even though your educational performance is outstanding.
In that case we would still be happy to welcome you as a regular participant. Please let us know while applying if this would be an option for you - simply click the according box in the scholarship application form! This will give you a further possibility to become part of this excellent program.
