The Bavarian State Ministry of Sciences, Research and the Arts sponsors students from abroad who would like to study at a Bavarian higher education institution.
However, the Ministry sees itself purely as a provider of funds.
The formal requirements, deadlines and levels of sponsorship are determined independently by each individual higher education institution.
Applicants should therefore first determine at which Bavarian higher education institution they want to study, and then find out about the sponsorship criteria there.
