upon proof of special study-related achievements in Germany (see §3, para. 2, no. 2a of the scholarship guidelines) up to 0.1 Bonus points
upon proof of special study-related achievements abroad (see §3, para. 2, no. 2a of the scholarship guidelines) by up to 0.2 Bonus points

What are voluntary activities?
Voluntary activities include regular participation in social, political or religious organisations, institutions, groups or bodies within or outside the university over a period of at least six months. In doing so, the organisations, institutions, groups or bodies must commit themselves to the free democratic basic order of the Federal Republic of Germany (in accordance with the Basic Law, Art. 21, para. 2).

What are the personal challenges?
Personal challenges include disabilities, chronical illnesses and/or breaks in one's own educational biography (e.g. a refugee background).
What are family-related challenges?
Family-related challenges include caring for one's own child/children, especially as a single parent, caring for a close relative in need of care at least with care level 2 and/or a so-called "educationally disadvantaged" parental home (both parents without a school leaving certificate).
What are economic challenges?
One of the particular economic challenges is economic need, especially in the form of social hardship. For detailed information, please refer to the scholarship guidelines under §4.
Calculating the total value for your application
The basis for determining the total value with which you apply for a Deutschlandstipendium is the base value resulting from the calculation of your average grade. In the case of relevant proof, the above criteria are applied, i.e. subtracted from the base value, resulting in the total value of your application.
In this way, a ranking list is created according to which the scholarships can then be awarded.
