Study abroad scholarships
The German Studies Department has had the extremely good fortune of having had some very generous benefactors in recent years who have made it possible to offer four different scholarships for study abroad.
Note: You may apply for all four scholarships but can only receive up to two different grants. Students may receive the Halle Scholarship in combination with a Max Kade, Westbrook, or Seefried Scholarship, but the latter three grants cannot be combined
Since 2007 the Max Kade Foundation has generously provided four $4,500 need-based scholarships to enable students from the Department of German Studies at Emory University to participate in the Vienna-Freiburg program. Two scholarships are for students who will take Intermediate German 201/202, and the other two scholarships for students who will take third-year German 370 A/B. Recipients are selected based on (1) financial need, (2) academic merit, and (3) strength of application and recommendation. German majors and minors will receive preference.
Scholarship ApplicationThrough the generosity of the Claus Halle Foundation, the Department of German Studies is able to offer seven $1,500 need-based scholarships to enable students from Emory University to cover their living allowances for their stay in Freiburg during the second half of the summer study abroad program. Recipients are selected based on (1) financial need, (2) academic merit, and (3) majoring or minoring in German.
The former Honorary Consul General of Austria Ferdinand Seefried and his family have provided generous funds for students participating in the summer study abroad program in Vienna-Freiburg. Recipients are selected on the basis of (1) academic merit, (2) commitment to the study of German, and (3) strength of application and recommendation. The amount of the scholarship is based on the number and quality of applicants as well as the size of the fund at the time of disbursement, but will most likely equal at least $1,500.
