DreamStudies hand out 4-8 one time scholarships of $500-$2000 USD per year. Students may be awarded different amounts within the above mentioned range. In total we hand out $5000-$10000 USD in scholarships per year.

The scholarships are available for studies at selected colleges, universities, and language schools abroad. On the application page (click the button below), and in our scholarship guide you can see which schools you can apply for. You cannot apply for our scholarship to schools that are not listed there.

Please note that this scholarship will not be enough to support you on long-term studies. You will still need other funding as well.

Bonus scholarship for language courses in Germany

If you want to study German in Germany, you have a double scholarship chance. In addition to our usual scholarships of $500-$2000 USD, you can also receive a scholarship that covers 25% of the tuition fee at the language school GoAcademy in Düsseldorf.

Who can apply?

You can get the scholarship for full-time studies starting in 2025 (or January 2026) at one of the selected schools on the application page (you cannot get it for programs that started in 2024 or earlier). If you want to start later, you should wait and apply for a scholarship in the coming years instead. Anyone can apply regardless of age, nationality, and background.

You do not need to be accepted by a school abroad when you apply for the scholarship, but if you receive the scholarship, it is on to the condition that you will study at the school and program which you mention in your scholarship application. We will put you in touch with the school you apply the scholarship for so they can give you more information. Please note that you can only get the scholarship if you apply directly to the school chosen above with assistance from DreamStudies. Students applying with the help of third-party agencies or exchange programs organized by their home university will be disqualified from this scholarship.

Application deadline and the scholarship winner

The application deadline is 15 December each year. DreamStudies’ Board of Directors then decides which student will be awarded the scholarship. His or her name is made public at the end of January. For more details see the terms and conditions on the application page.
