Scholarships

Students, who want to participate in the U.S.- German Summer Law School, have the possibility to apply for a partial scholarship.

How to apply for a scholarship?

If you state that you wish to apply for financial subsidies in our Application Form, you need to attach the following additional documents to your application:

  • One letter of reference from one of your lecturers (written in the English language)
  • A thorough letter of motivation including your reasons to apply for the course and stating your personal financial neediness.
  • Transcripts of Records showing us your academic achievements (optional)
  • A certificate of your proficiency in the English language (for non-native speakers)

What do we take into consideration?

  • Individual students’ motivation for their participation in our Summer Law School
  • Students’ academic excellence
  • Students’ financial needs
  • Diversity in the composition of the Summer School group

What is covered by a scholarship?

A scholarship will partially reduce the total fee. The sum is set individually since it depends on the individual application and the available funds, which vary yearly. Unfortunately, we are not able to provide scholarships, which waive the complete program fee. Scholarships will not cover travel costs. 

Application deadline: May 31st 2022
