Summary
Highlights
Applicants must fill out a short form on the website and submit a 1-2 minute video (landscape mode) introducing themselves, discussing academic/career goals, explaining their motivation to study in Germany, and how Max's YouTube channel has helped them. The video should be uploaded to YouTube (public or unlisted) and the link provided in the application.
Max introduces the Germany Fastlane scholarship, a €12,000 award to help one student study in Germany and cover their living costs for one year, emphasizing it's a scholarship created by a student for students to give back and support committed individuals.
The scholarship is open to all international students, regardless of origin, age, or study plan (bachelor's, master's, or other degrees), who intend to start studying in Germany in the winter semester 2026. Applicants do not need university acceptance yet but must show proof of admission by August 2026. The funds are for living costs, not tuition fees.
Max will personally review all video submissions, selecting the winner based on authenticity, academic performance, and financial need. Strong grades and German language learning are a plus. The application deadline is April 30, 2026, and the winner will be announced on May 31, 2026. The winner will receive €12,000 and support with setting up a blocked account.
