How to apply for full and partial scholarships?
This year we’ve introduced a new funding application for partial and full scholarships, which will be separate from the application for admission. Only admitted students will receive the application and instructions to apply for funding after receiving their admissions decision. Complete information on that process can be found on our blog.
The application for admission remains largely the same. Full instructions can be found on the application portal.
Do you still have questions? Let’s meet your Student Recruitment team who will be there to support you every step of the way throughout the application process.
Meet us at one of our online or in-person events, or reach out anytime at grad-admissions[at]hertie-school[dot]org. We’re happy to help.
Best of luck with your application!
