preference. However, the selection board has often
given preference to courses and subjects that they
felt to be of significance for the home country of the

towards development oriented studiesthis does
however not mean that other fields (cultural,
philosophic, linguistic, etc.) cannot be of significance
for a country and are ruled out.

interreligious dialogue

Scholarships for Developing Countries

How to Apply: The first request is placed through filling the application questionnaire and sending it to the
KAAD offices. Normally documents are submitted to the committee of the applicants home country. In the
course of the application process, more documents need to be provided by the applicant and the KAAD-
Partner-Committees are involved. If the pre-selection process has been positive for the applicant, the
application is passed on to an independent selection board, which sits twice per year (in March and in
September).

Application Deadline: Applications for the September selection need to be complete by end of June.
Many times, applicants get admission letters (especially for Master-courses) only when these deadlines
have passed. In these cases, the university has to be asked to defer the admission to the next academic
year. Applications can be made already before admission letters are received. However at the end of the
application process, the applicant needs to show either an admission letter or a confirmation by the
university that they are eligible for the course and that the application has been received and being
processed.
