Study with a Tailwind – Financial Support for Your Career

We believe in the potential of young people and want to support them in shaping their future! That’s why CBS awards several scholarships each year for the winter semester.

‍

CBS International Business School provides scholarships to students who have demonstrated exceptional academic performance or social commitment during their school years or undergraduate studies. Our goal is to enable access to CBS for those who may not be able to afford private university tuition on their own. Eligible applicants who successfully complete the application process may receive a scholarship covering up to 25% of their tuition fees.

CBS International Business School scholarship (Campus cologne)

The CBS scholarship is aimed at ambitious students who wish to unlock their potential and advance their academic careers with financial support. Open to applicants for both full-time and part-time degree programmes, the scholarship is awarded exclusively for the winter semester. Students enrolled in Bachelor’s, Master’s, or MBA programmes – whether from Germany or the EU – may apply on their own initiative, demonstrating their commitment and drive to excel.

This applies to Bachelor, Master, and MBA students who have successfully completed the CBS (Cologne) admissions process and intend to begin their first semester of study there. The programme is open to both domestic and international students from the EU/EEA, regardless of whether you plan to study full-time or part-time.

All scholarship recipients receive a 25% waiver on the total tuition fees for their study programme at CBS. The funding begins in the first semester and applies for the duration of your enrollment at CBS within the standard period of study.

PREP4UNIVERSITY BACHELOR SCHOLARSHIP

The Prep4University Scholarship at CBS supports students who demonstrate outstanding social engagement and apply on their own initiative. It is open to all Prep4University Studienkolleg students pursuing a full-time Bachelor’s degree at CBS, with the exception of dual Bachelor’s programs.

The scholarship is awarded after the final grades of the Prep4University Studienkolleg are released and offers committed talents the opportunity to continue their academic journey with financial support while further strengthening their social engagement.

Best Performer Stipendium:

Best Performer Scholarship
We support high-achieving or socially committed Prep4University Studienkolleg students. The key criterion for the Best Performer Scholarship is your final exam results from the Prep4University Studienkolleg. A letter of recommendation can further highlight your academic performance and strengthen your application.

‍Social Engagement Scholarship
For the Social Engagement Scholarship, you must provide proof of your social commitment. This may include voluntary work in a sports club, refugee support, or other non-profit organizations. You can convince the selection committee through your charitable engagement and talent in artistic, athletic, or social fields.

Scholarship Programmes from other Organisations

Did you know that every year in Germany, numerous scholarships go unused because too few people apply?
