Reports from Current Scholarship Holders
"I applied at the beginning of the third semester,
because my grades were quite good and I realized
that it doesn't take that much effort to apply. After all,
I had nothing to lose, but a lot to gain."

"Unfortunately, there is still no equality of opportunity and people with
fewer financial resources are severely disadvantaged in our education
system. Scholarships contribute to greater educational equality.
Socially engaged people should take advantage of this opportunity."

"First-generation university students and students from
working-class families in particular often have doubts and
reservations about scholarships, and I was no different.
But that's exactly what the broad range of foundations is
there for. There is something here for every target group."

"My advice to all students: take a chance! Try your luck.
Don't ask yourself what will happen if you don't get the
scholarship. Ask yourself: What opportunities will open
up for me? What opportunities will I get? What happens
if I do get the scholarship?"

can speak five languages, write theorems for breakfast and
play the piano blind. Most of them are just normal people who
are enthusiastic about their subjects."

"After graduating from high school, when I wanted to start my studies, I had

by having to work a lot. A scholarship helped me to concentrate on my studies
without financial worries."
