What is STIBET - I ?

The German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD) uses funds from the Federal Foreign Office (AA) to support the combined scholarship and support programme STIBET - I for general and subject-related support and assistance as well as the creation of hospitable and performance-enhancing conditions at universities for international students.

Part of this programme are the STIBET - I scholarships for international students only. If you are a full-time Bachelor's or Master's student at SRH University and fulfil the requirements listed below, you can apply.

There are 3 types of scholarships:

  1. Graduation scholarship
  2. Scholarships for special commitment (engagement scholarship)
  3. Scholarships for more equal opportunities for scholarship holders with special challenges during their studies (e.g. special care situations for children or relatives in need of care, disability, refugee background)

There is no legal entitlement to a STIBET - I scholarship.
