Scholarships offered by the Rhineland-Palatinate foundation

The state of Rhineland-Palatinate and the state's universities have established the Rhineland-Palatinate Scholarship Foundation to support young
academics. As a result, Worms University of Applied Sciences is able to promote and support students at our university on an annual basis.
The amount of the scholarship depends on the funds provided by the foundation each year, therefore we cannot make any statement about the
amount of the support in advance, except for the support line "scholarship for talented students".

There are different funding lines of the foundation:

• Support for excellent German and foreign students
