German organisation sponsoring students
Немецкий академический фонд стипендий (нем. Studienstiftung des deutschen Volkes, или Studienstiftung для краткости) является крупнейшим и самым престижным фондом стипендий в Германии. В соответствии с уставом, он поддерживает "университетское образование молодых людей, которые благодаря своим выдающимся академическим или художественным способностям и личным качествам могут внести значительный вклад в развитие общества". Studienstiftung является неполитическим, неконфессиональным и идеологически независимым. Его штаб-квартира находится в Бонне, также имеется офис в Берлине. Нынешний президент – директор Боннского университета, а покровителем (Schirmherr [de]) является президент Германии Франк-Вальтер Штайнмайер. Studienstiftung, как и 12 других фондов поддержки одаренных (Begabtenförderungswerk [de]), финансируется Федеральным министерством образования и научных исследований Германии за счет средств федерального правительства, земель Германии и местных органов власти, многочисленных фондов и предприятий, а также частных пожертвований. В 2015 году бюджет Studienstiftung превысил 103 миллиона евро. В период с 1925 по 2015 год фонд поддержал более 65 000 студентов и аспирантов; по состоянию на 2015 год у него было более 60 000 выпускников по всему миру. Процесс отбора чрезвычайно строгий, и выбираются только те студенты, которые демонстрируют выдающиеся академические и личностные качества. Studienstiftung присуждает стипендии менее чем 0,5% немецких студентов. Его часто называют "тайным элитным университетом" Германии.
The German Academic Scholarship Foundation (German: Studienstiftung des deutschen Volkes, or Studienstiftung for short) is Germany's largest and most prestigious scholarship foundation. According to its statutes, it supports "the university education of young people who, on account of their exceptional academic or artistic talents and their personalities, can be expected to make an outstanding contribution to society as a whole". The Studienstiftung is non political, non denominational and ideologically independent. Its headquarters are located in Bonn; it also has an office in Berlin. The current president is University of Bonn director , and its patron (Schirmherr [de]) is the President of Germany, Frank Walter Steinmeier. The Studienstiftung, like 12 other scholarship foundations (Begabtenförderungswerk [de]), is funded by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research, with funds from the federal government, the German federal states and local authorities, numerous foundations and businesses as well as numerous private donors. In 2015, the Studienstiftung's budget was over €103 million. Between 1925 and 2015, it has supported over 65,000 students and doctoral candidates; as of 2015, it had over 60,000 alumni worldwide. The selection process is extremely rigorous and only those students who show outstanding academic and personal promise are chosen. The Studienstiftung awards scholarships to fewer than 0.5% of German students. It is often referred to as Germany's "secret elite university".
Прием
Studienstiftung предлагает общую стипендию для обучения в бакалавриате и магистратуре, которая состоит как из финансовой, так и из академической поддержки. Право на получение стипендии определяется на основе критериев BAFöG, немецкой государственной системы поддержки студентов. Стипендия Studienstiftung предоставляется только студентам, обучающимся в университете на очной форме. Часть обучения должна проходить в университете Германии, другой страны ЕС или Швейцарии. Гражданство Германии или ЕС не требуется, и возрастные ограничения отсутствуют. Studienstiftung принимает исключительно талантливых студентов и аспирантов, отобранных в соответствии с ее миссией, основанной на принципах "превосходства, инициативы и ответственности". Стипендиаты (ученые) принимаются по различным каналам:
The Studienstiftung offers a general scholarship for bachelor's and master's studies that consists of both financial and academic support. Eligibility is based on the criteria for BAFöG, the German state support system for students. The Studienstiftung scholarship accepts only applicants that study full time at university. A part of an applicant's university studies must be at a university in Germany, in another EU country, or in Switzerland. German or EU citizenship are not required, and there are no age criteria. The Studienstiftung accepts exceptionally talented students and doctoral candidates selected in accordance with its mission statement, which is based upon the principles of "excellence, initiative and responsibility". Scholarship holders (scholars) are admitted through various channels:
Nomination by a school: The principal of a high school or school with an upper secondary level can nominate one in 50 senior students for admission to the Studienstiftung. This student must excel both academically and in terms of social commitment. Nominated students attend a three day selection seminar where their eligibility for funding is assessed in individual interviews and group discussions. 23.8% of students nominated in 2015 were offered admission to the Studienstiftung. There is no set admissions quota for the number of students admitted each year. Nomination by professors: Students at universities and universities of applied science can be nominated directly by university teachers. Again, candidates attend a selection seminar. In 2015, 48.3% of students nominated by their professors were offered admission to the Studienstiftung. Nomination by an examination board: Just as students can be nominated by schools, one in every 50 students in the second academic year in his/her respective study programme can be nominated by universities and universities of applied science. The nomination must be supported by a professor. The selection seminar is organised along the same lines as the selection seminar for students nominated by schools. In this case, however, the candidate's proven academic achievements at university also carry weight. In 2015, 28.8% of nominees were offered admission. Winners of a national or federal competition or nomination by select cooperation partners: Winners of or participants in various competitions on a national, federal or international level (e. g. Bundeswettbewerb Informatik, Bundeswettbewerb Mathematik, Bundeswettbewerb Fremdsprachen, Jugend forscht, Jugend debattiert, Internationale Mathematik Olympiade, Internationale Physik Olympiade, Altsprachenwettbewerb des Landes Baden Württemberg) may be offered admission to the Studienstiftung. Select cooperation partners (e. g. START Stiftung) may also nominate potential sponsorship candidates. Assessment Test: Since February 2010, candidates can also put themselves forward for a scholarship. First and second semester students can sign up for the Studienstiftung assessment test in January/February/March each year. The test is held at test centres throughout Germany. The applicants with the best results are invited to attend the selection seminar. While the assessment test determines applicants' cognitive abilities, the selection seminar focuses on motivation, extracurricular interests, social commitment and social skills, which are assessed in personal interviews and group discussions. Nomination by alums: Studienstiftung alums may also nominate students who they consider appropriate, having taught them personally in school or university courses. Support of musicians and artists: After an internal pre selection procedure, universities can nominate students of the fine arts, music and the performing arts for participation in a Studienstiftung selection seminar. If admission occurs before the end of the fourth semester, sponsorship is usually granted until the end of the sixth semester. An extension of the scholarship beyond the sixth semester usually depends on academic performance in the first four semesters. In borderline cases, aspects other than academic achievements – such as exceptional social engagement or particular personal circumstances – may positively influence the decision to approve further funding. After an application has been approved, funding is awarded from the 6th semester until studies are completed (for example, until the master's degree or state examinations have been completed). In 2014, 91% of requests for further funding were approved. The Studienstiftung also offers a doctoral scholarship for highly qualified and prosocial PhD students. The doctoral scholarship accepts applications from doctoral candidates at universities in Germany and at universities worldwide under certain conditions.
Nomination by a school: The principal of a high school or school with an upper secondary level can nominate one in 50 senior students for admission to the Studienstiftung. This student must excel both academically and in terms of social commitment. Nominated students attend a three day selection seminar where their eligibility for funding is assessed in individual interviews and group discussions. 23.8% of students nominated in 2015 were offered admission to the Studienstiftung.

Победители национальных или федеральных конкурсов или выдвижение избранными партнерами по сотрудничеству: Победители или участники различных конкурсов на национальном, федеральном или международном уровне (например, Bundeswettbewerb Informatik, Bundeswettbewerb Mathematik, Bundeswettbewerb Fremdsprachen, Jugend forscht, Jugend debattiert, Internationale Mathematik Olympiade, Internationale Physik Olympiade, Altsprachenwettbewerb des Landes Baden Württemberg) могут быть приглашены к поступлению в Studienstiftung. Избранные партнеры по сотрудничеству (например, START Stiftung) также могут выдвигать потенциальных кандидатов на спонсорство.
The Studienstiftung offers a general scholarship for bachelor's and master's studies that consists of both financial and academic support. Eligibility is based on the criteria for BAFöG, the German state support system for students. The Studienstiftung scholarship accepts only applicants that study full time at university. A part of an applicant's university studies must be at a university in Germany, in another EU country, or in Switzerland. German or EU citizenship are not required, and there are no age criteria. The Studienstiftung accepts exceptionally talented students and doctoral candidates selected in accordance with its mission statement, which is based upon the principles of "excellence, initiative and responsibility". Scholarship holders (scholars) are admitted through various channels:
Nomination by a school: The principal of a high school or school with an upper secondary level can nominate one in 50 senior students for admission to the Studienstiftung. This student must excel both academically and in terms of social commitment. Nominated students attend a three day selection seminar where their eligibility for funding is assessed in individual interviews and group discussions. 23.8% of students nominated in 2015 were offered admission to the Studienstiftung. There is no set admissions quota for the number of students admitted each year. Nomination by professors: Students at universities and universities of applied science can be nominated directly by university teachers. Again, candidates attend a selection seminar. In 2015, 48.3% of students nominated by their professors were offered admission to the Studienstiftung. Nomination by an examination board: Just as students can be nominated by schools, one in every 50 students in the second academic year in his/her respective study programme can be nominated by universities and universities of applied science. The nomination must be supported by a professor. The selection seminar is organised along the same lines as the selection seminar for students nominated by schools. In this case, however, the candidate's proven academic achievements at university also carry weight. In 2015, 28.8% of nominees were offered admission. Winners of a national or federal competition or nomination by select cooperation partners: Winners of or participants in various competitions on a national, federal or international level (e. g. Bundeswettbewerb Informatik, Bundeswettbewerb Mathematik, Bundeswettbewerb Fremdsprachen, Jugend forscht, Jugend debattiert, Internationale Mathematik Olympiade, Internationale Physik Olympiade, Altsprachenwettbewerb des Landes Baden Württemberg) may be offered admission to the Studienstiftung. Select cooperation partners (e. g. START Stiftung) may also nominate potential sponsorship candidates. Assessment Test: Since February 2010, candidates can also put themselves forward for a scholarship. First and second semester students can sign up for the Studienstiftung assessment test in January/February/March each year. The test is held at test centres throughout Germany. The applicants with the best results are invited to attend the selection seminar. While the assessment test determines applicants' cognitive abilities, the selection seminar focuses on motivation, extracurricular interests, social commitment and social skills, which are assessed in personal interviews and group discussions. Nomination by alums: Studienstiftung alums may also nominate students who they consider appropriate, having taught them personally in school or university courses. Support of musicians and artists: After an internal pre selection procedure, universities can nominate students of the fine arts, music and the performing arts for participation in a Studienstiftung selection seminar. If admission occurs before the end of the fourth semester, sponsorship is usually granted until the end of the sixth semester. An extension of the scholarship beyond the sixth semester usually depends on academic performance in the first four semesters. In borderline cases, aspects other than academic achievements – such as exceptional social engagement or particular personal circumstances – may positively influence the decision to approve further funding. After an application has been approved, funding is awarded from the 6th semester until studies are completed (for example, until the master's degree or state examinations have been completed). In 2014, 91% of requests for further funding were approved. The Studienstiftung also offers a doctoral scholarship for highly qualified and prosocial PhD students.

Тест на оценку: С февраля 2010 года кандидаты могут самостоятельно подавать заявку на стипендию. Студенты первого и второго семестров могут зарегистрироваться на оценочный тест Studienstiftung в январе/феврале/марте каждого года. Тест проводится в центрах тестирования по всей Германии. Кандидаты с лучшими результатами приглашаются на отборочный семинар. Оценочный тест определяет когнитивные способности кандидатов, в то время как отборочный семинар фокусируется на мотивации, внеучебных интересах, социальной активности и коммуникативных навыках, которые оцениваются в ходе личных собеседований и групповых дискуссий.

Поддержка музыкантов и художников: После внутренней предварительной процедуры отбора университеты могут выдвигать студентов факультетов изобразительного искусства, музыки и исполнительского искусства для участия в отборочном семинаре Studienstiftung. В случае поступления до конца четвертого семестра спонсорство обычно предоставляется до конца шестого семестра. Продление стипендии после шестого семестра обычно зависит от успеваемости в первых четырех семестрах. В спорных случаях, факторы, отличные от академических достижений, такие как выдающаяся социальная активность или особые личные обстоятельства, могут положительно повлиять на решение о продлении финансирования.

If admission occurs before the end of the fourth semester, sponsorship is usually granted until the end of the sixth semester. An extension of the scholarship beyond the sixth semester usually depends on academic performance in the first four semesters. In borderline cases, aspects other than academic achievements – such as exceptional social engagement or particular personal circumstances – may positively influence the decision to approve further funding. After an application has been approved, funding is awarded from the 6th semester until studies are completed (for example, until the master's degree or state examinations have been completed). In 2014, 91% of requests for further funding were approved. The Studienstiftung also offers a doctoral scholarship for highly qualified and prosocial PhD students. The doctoral scholarship accepts applications from doctoral candidates at universities in Germany and at universities worldwide under certain conditions.
Nomination by a school: The principal of a high school or school with an upper secondary level can nominate one in 50 senior students for admission to the Studienstiftung. This student must excel both academically and in terms of social commitment. Nominated students attend a three day selection seminar where their eligibility for funding is assessed in individual interviews and group discussions. 23.8% of students nominated in 2015 were offered admission to the Studienstiftung. There is no set admissions quota for the number of students admitted each year. Nomination by professors: Students at universities and universities of applied science can be nominated directly by university teachers. Again, candidates attend a selection seminar. In 2015, 48.3% of students nominated by their professors were offered admission to the Studienstiftung. Nomination by an examination board: Just as students can be nominated by schools, one in every 50 students in the second academic year in his/her respective study programme can be nominated by universities and universities of applied science. The nomination must be supported by a professor. The selection seminar is organised along the same lines as the selection seminar for students nominated by schools. In this case, however, the candidate's proven academic achievements at university also carry weight. In 2015, 28.8% of nominees were offered admission. Winners of a national or federal competition or nomination by select cooperation partners: Winners of or participants in various competitions on a national, federal or international level (e. g. Bundeswettbewerb Informatik, Bundeswettbewerb Mathematik, Bundeswettbewerb Fremdsprachen, Jugend forscht, Jugend debattiert, Internationale Mathematik Olympiade, Internationale Physik Olympiade, Altsprachenwettbewerb des Landes Baden Württemberg) may be offered admission to the Studienstiftung. Select cooperation partners (e. g. START Stiftung) may also nominate potential sponsorship candidates. Assessment Test: Since February 2010, candidates can also put themselves forward for a scholarship. First and second semester students can sign up for the Studienstiftung assessment test in January/February/March each year. The test is held at test centres throughout Germany. The applicants with the best results are invited to attend the selection seminar. While the assessment test determines applicants' cognitive abilities, the selection seminar focuses on motivation, extracurricular interests, social commitment and social skills, which are assessed in personal interviews and group discussions.

The doctoral scholarship accepts applications from doctoral candidates at universities in Germany and at universities worldwide under certain conditions.
Studienstiftung также предлагает стипендию для аспирантов, обладающих высокими академическими способностями и социальной ответственностью. Стипендия для аспирантов принимает заявки от аспирантов, обучающихся в университетах Германии и университетах по всему миру при определенных условиях.
The Studienstiftung offers a general scholarship for bachelor's and master's studies that consists of both financial and academic support. Eligibility is based on the criteria for BAFöG, the German state support system for students. The Studienstiftung scholarship accepts only applicants that study full time at university. A part of an applicant's university studies must be at a university in Germany, in another EU country, or in Switzerland. German or EU citizenship are not required, and there are no age criteria. The Studienstiftung accepts exceptionally talented students and doctoral candidates selected in accordance with its mission statement, which is based upon the principles of "excellence, initiative and responsibility". Scholarship holders (scholars) are admitted through various channels:

Общая стипендия для студентов бакалавриата, магистратуры и докторантуры
Стипендия Studienstiftung включает в себя как финансовую, так и академическую поддержку.
The general Studienstiftung scholarship consists of both financial and academic support.
Финансовая поддержка
Финансовая поддержка включает в себя пособие в размере 300 евро в месяц. Стипендиаты могут претендовать на базовую стипендию, размер которой определяется в соответствии с BAföG (Федеральным законом о поддержке обучения) и может достигать 744 евро в месяц. Аспирантам выплачивается ежемесячное вознаграждение в размере 1350 евро плюс пособие на проведение исследований в размере 100 евро. Дополнительное финансирование предусмотрено для студентов и аспирантов, имеющих детей. Финансовая поддержка регулируется положениями Министерства образования и научных исследований Германии (BMBF). Поездки за границу также поддерживаются за счет грантов или зарубежных пособий, а также частичной оплаты платы за обучение. В соответствии с пунктом 11 Einkommensteuergesetz (EStG – Немецкий закон о подоходном налоге) выплаты стипендий не облагаются налогом.
Financial support includes an allowance (€300 monthly). Scholars can receive a need based basic scholarship, which is calculated according to the BAföG (Federal Training Assistance Act) and can be up to €744 per month. PhD scholars receive a monthly award of €1,350 plus a research allowance of €100. Additional funds are provided for students and PhD students with children. Financial support is regulated by the guidelines of the German Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF). Visits abroad are also supported by grants or overseas allowances and the partial payment of tuition fees. Under the terms of No. 11 Einkommensteuergesetz (EStG – German Income Tax Law) scholarship payments are tax free.
Академическая поддержка
Академическая поддержка Студиенсфитюнга включает в себя летние школы, исследовательские группы, языковые курсы, семинары и наставничество со стороны местных преподавателей и ученых, которые выполняют эту работу для Студиенсфитюнга на добровольной основе. Стипендиаты обязаны представлять отчет о своей учебе и других видах деятельности каждый семестр в течение первых семестров (обычно до конца четвертого семестра), а затем – раз в год. Стипендиаты также могут подавать заявки на финансирование для организации собственных конференций и других мероприятий. Студиенсфиттунг ежегодно проводит двухнедельные субсидируемые летние академии, которые являются основным форматом мероприятий для стипендиатов. Стипендиаты также могут организовывать краткосрочные академии и получать аналогичную субсидию. Например, стипендиаты, занимающиеся исследованиями в области квир-теории, с 2001 года используют эту возможность для проведения ежегодных встреч, а с 2014 года – при финансовой поддержке Студиенсфиттунга.
The Studienstiftung's academic support includes summer schools, research groups, language courses, workshops and mentoring by local tutors, academics who carry out this task for the Studienstiftung on a voluntary basis. Scholars are required to submit a report on their studies and other activities every semester during the first semesters (usually until the end of the fourth semester), and once a year thereafter. Scholars can also apply for funding in order to organise their own conferences and other events. The Studienstiftung offers yearly two week subsidised summer academies, which are its "central event format" for scholarship holders. Scholars themselves can also organise shorter academies and benefit from similar subsidisation. For instance, queer scholarship holders have been making use of this possibility to organise annual meetings since 2001, with financial support from the Studienstiftung since the 2014 edition.
Внутренние стипендиальные программы
В дополнение к своей обычной стипендиальной программе, Studienstiftung предлагает внутренние программы стипендий для отобранных стипендиатов и выпускников. Примером является программа KAUST Studienstiftung – совместное партнерство между Саудовским Университетом науки и технологий имени короля Абдуллы (KAUST) и Studienstiftung под патронажем Федерального министерства иностранных дел Германии, позволяющее стипендиатам, обучающимся по направлениям STEM, проходить исследовательские стажировки в KAUST или поступать в магистратуру или аспирантуру. В области музыки, например, в сотрудничестве с Домом-музеем Бетховена присуждаются стипендии молодым композиторам.
In addition to its regular scholarship scheme, the Studienstiftung offers internal scholarship programmes for selected scholars and alumni. Examples include the KAUST Studienstiftung programme, a joint partnership between the Saudi Arabian King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST) and the Studienstiftung under the patronage of the German Federal Foreign Office which allows scholars from the STEM disciplines to join KAUST for research internships or to enrol in Master or PhD programs. In the musical field, for example, in cooperation with the Beethoven House residence scholarships are awarded for young composers.
Открытые стипендиальные программы
Кроме того, Studienstiftung предлагает открытые стипендиальные программы, которые реализуются и финансируются в сотрудничестве с другими организациями. К ним относятся Программа академических стипендий Макклоя, программа ERP Stipendienprogramm и программа Карло Шмида. Для участия в этих стипендиальных программах не требуется предварительного получения регулярной стипендии от Studienstiftung. С 2005 года Studienstiftung также реализует стипендию Макса Вебера для студентов в Баварии, учрежденную региональным (земным) правительством в рамках Закона о поддержке баварской элиты (BayEFG).
Moreover, the Studienstiftung offers open scholarship programmes, which are run and financed in cooperation with other organisations. They include the McCloy Academic Scholarship Program, the ERP Stipendienprogramm and the Carlo Schmid Programm. Participation in these scholarship programmes does not require previously holding a regular scholarship by the Studienstiftung. Since 2005 the Studienstiftung has also been running the Max Weber scholarship for students in Bavaria, introduced by the regional (Land) administration via the Bavarian Elite Support Act (BayEFG).
