Scholarships for first-year students
Program details
This program offers (future) graduates who completed their education at a German school abroad (DAS/DSD/DPS) and have a secondary school diploma that is recognized as a university qualification in Germany the opportunity to receive a scholarship during their first year of studies in a degree program at TU Dresden (in collaboration with the Deutschlandstipendium scholarship).
The scholarship is primarily geared towards first-year students (not to students already enrolled at TU Dresden). Exchange students who will only study for one or two semesters at TU Dresden and will not receive their degree from TU Dresden are not eligible to receive this scholarship.
Funding
€ 300 per month for 12 months, i.e. from October 2025 until September 2026
Application documents
- Online application via the Deutschlandstipendium application portal

Scholarship application deadline
To find out about the application deadline, please refer to the Deutschlandstipendium website.
Application period: 01st until 15th of July
Application for a study program
Applicants with a state (national) or international secondary school leaving certificate (e.g. IB/GIB) must submit the application for a place at the TU Dresden to the Arbeits- und Servicestelle für internationale Studienbewerbungen e.V. (uni- assist). Applicants with the German Abitur or the German International Abitur (DIA) do not apply via uni assist but directly via TU Dresden.
On behalf of the TU Dresden, uni-assist checks whether the submitted application documents are complete and whether the formal admission requirements for the desired study program are met. If this is the case, the application will be forwarded to the TU Dresden for final review and admission. Fees are charged for the processing of the application by uni- assist.
You can find more important information about applying via uni-assist on the following website:
We recommend that you submit more than one application, i.e. applications for several study programs at TU Dresden (that are actually interesting for you). If you do not receive a study place for your favored study program, there is still another chance to be possibly accepted for your second or third priority.
Study program application deadline
15.07.2024 or other deadline (Application deadlines depend on the study program. Please check the TU Dresden's study information system for the application deadline for the degree program you are interested in).
