Scholarships Database, Cover Letter & Notion Template

During my master's degree at TUM, I received €25,000 through 11 scholarships and a €10,000 interest-free student loan which has funded my stays abroad at Stanford University, Hebrew University of Jerusalem, and Tsinghua University, and partially my living costs in Germany.

In this document I'll share with you:

-> 33 scholarships categorized in:

• the amount provided
• target group
• requirements
• deadline
• the purpose of funding (Germany or Abroad)
• language of application

Here is a sneak peek of it:

-> My Notion template you can duplicate and use for organizing your scholarship applications.

-> The Cover Letter that has enabled me to receive 11 scholarships. Three of my friends used this cover letter as a template and got the scholarships they applied for!

NOTE: Everyone can benefit from the Scholarships Database (no matter their citizenship, study background, gender, etc.), however, most of the scholarships target students studying in German universities.
