The non-profit Landesstiftung foundation was formed from the Landesbeteiligungen Baden-Württemberg GmbH. It fosters charitable projects aimed at promoting the future potential of Baden-Württemberg.

This scholarship is offered to selected students going to any university in the German State of Baden-Württemberg on student exchange. Its aim is to promote the international exchange of qualified German and non-German students.

The state will consider deserving students from our university, who would like to spend part of their studies or part of their research period in Baden-Wuerttemberg. The choice of the study location abroad is determined following consultation between NUS and the partner universities of Baden-Württemberg.

Selected students will receive scholarship for a minimum of 4 months and up to a maximum of 11 months ranging from €400 to €800 per month. Applications will open in Semester 2. For more information, please visit:

The application is only by invitation. It is open and valid for SEP in Germany in both semesters. Please be informed that each partner university has a different application procedure and amount of funding. Not every partner university offers the scholarship to NUS students and even if the partner university does, it usually offers to only one or two NUS students. The partner university would know if the scholarship is offered only when they confirm their budget and the time of confirmation varies from year to year. If the partner university is able to offer the scholarship for that academic year, they would inform NUS IRO which would then recommend candidates to the partner university based on CAP and content of SEP application form. Only shortlisted candidates would be notified to apply for the scholarship accordingly. For students going on exchange to a partner university in Baden-Wuerttemberg and who have not been informed to apply for the scholarship, it could be due to the scholarship not being offered by the partner university for that year or that the scholarship is offered but they are not among the shortlisted candidates. In either case, such students can conclude that the scholarship is not an option for them.
