Government and university scholarships to watch
DAAD scholarships are the most prestigious, covering full tuition and living expenses, but require a strong academic profile and motivation.
Universities like TU Munich, Heidelberg University, and LMU Munich offer various scholarships for high-achieving Vietnamese students—deadlines fall in spring and autumn.
Highlights
- Prepare notarised transcripts and German language certificates (if required) early to meet eligibility.
