Does IU Germany currently offer scholarships?

IU’s own tuition page says it does not offer scholarships in the traditional sense. Instead, students can receive competitive tuition-fee reductions.

How much can a student save?

The exact reduction varies by offer. IU also gives a 2% yearly-payment discount and up to 10% for full upfront payment, depending on the programme.

What costs are not covered?

Living costs, accommodation, travel, visa, insurance and campus-related charges remain outside the fee-reduction package.

What does this scholarship actually cover?

The old keyword 'IU Germany Scholarships' should be treated as a tuition-discount opportunity. IU's own tuition page explicitly says it does not offer scholarships and instead offers fee reductions.

Other verified benefits

IU offers current fee reductions plus payment discounts. Yearly payment gives 2% off, while full upfront payment can save up to 10%, depending on the programme.

Costs not confirmed or not covered

No standard living stipend, accommodation, travel, visa or insurance funding is included. Campus students also face the current campus registration fee and semester transport ticket.

Who is eligible to apply?

Applicants must meet the admission criteria of their chosen IU programme. The actual fee reduction depends on the current IU offer rather than one universal scholarship percentage.

Students should request the current reduction from IU Study Advisors and judge the final net tuition rather than relying on old third-party scholarship percentages.
