Group Visits to Germany by Foreign Students for Study Trips / Study Seminars and Practicals. The German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD) funds Study Visits and Study Seminars and Practicals in the Federal Republic of Germany by groups of foreign students under the direction of university teachers.
I. Funding Objectives
In the case of Study Seminars and Practicals, the programme aims to encourage a policy of reciprocal invitation, although this does not constitute a condition of support, which means that funding can initially also be given for visits in only one direction.
Cultural events (e.g. concert trips) may be funded if the focus is on subject-specific meetings between students and the relevance to higher education is proven.
A maximum of one application per year can be considered per department, institute and applicant. Required/mandatory excursions or measures which have already been carried out cannot be funded.
II. Target Group and Length of Stay
Funding can be provided for groups of students who are fully matriculated in their third semester or higher in a respective degree programme at a foreign university and who travel under guidance and direction of a university teacher. Groups must be made up of at least 10 participants and must not, as a rule exceed 15 persons. One university teacher may additionally be funded as an accompanying person.
Group Visits and Study Seminars and Practicals should last no less than 7 days. Funding is available for a maximum 12 days (including travel days), although the stays may last longer.
III. Funding
The DAAD takes out health, accident and public/private liability insurance for each funded group. Due to the limited financial resources, the DAAD reserves the right to reduce the level of funding. It is assumed that the universities or other sponsors (e.g. support associations, companies from business and industry) will contribute to the overall costs, so that the personal contribution to be made by participants remains at a reasonable level.
Regulations applying to Indonesia (among other countries)
a) Programme planning
The DAAD plans the programme design. Wishes and preferences stated in the application form will, as far as possible, be taken into consideration. However, it is likely that cuts or changes will be made to the programme due to decisions reached by the selection committees. The DAAD provides a travel guide fluent in the agreed group language who is responsible for the smooth running of and compliance with the programme drawn up by DAAD Head Office
b) Meals and accomodation
As a rule, groups will be accommodated in twin or three-bed rooms in hotels or youth guesthouses/hostels. The DAAD pays the subsistence costs (meals and accommodation) for the group (including for the group leader and, where appropriate, bus driver) during the stay in Germany.
c) Transport
The DAAD decides on the choice of means of transport. In many cases, a coach/bus will be used to ensure that the visit programme schedule can run smoothly. In the case of groups that cannot travel to Germany with their own coach/bus, the DAAD can hire a coach/bus for travel within Germany. If the group travels in a coach/bus not hired by the DAAD, a seat must be available for the DAAD guide; in such cases, the DAAD will pay the fuel costs for travel within Germany. For some programme points, however, use of public transport may be more suitable. The conditions will be advised on an individual basis.
The DAAD regrets that it is unable to pay any international travel costs.
IV. Application papers
1. Application form (download here ) ; including budget and list of participants
2. Reasons for and contentual description of the programme for one subject area, including a precise list of the visit and tour preferences, both in terms of subject-related (academic) content and of German area studies content.

Foreign students university, fine arts and music school scholarships
Through the Federal Commission for Scholarships for Foreign Students (FCS), the Swiss Government grants foreign students university scholarships (Swiss universities, Federal Institutes of Technology). These scholarships are offered on the basis of reciprocity (fixed number of scholarships for each country) or within the frame of a scholarship pool (scholarships without fixed distribution by country). They are intended for students who have graduated from university (postgraduates) and who, by staying in Switzerland, will be able to further their education and to undertake research work in the fields in which the Swiss universities are particularly active.
To a limited extent, scholarships are also offered for postgraduate studies at the Universities of Applied Sciences. This applies to the group of Western (AP-1) and Central and Eastern European countries (AP-2) included in the scholarship pool. Students must have graduated from a university or university of applied sciences with at least a Bachelor Degree and enrol in Switzerland for studies at post-graduate level. This offer applies for the seven universities of applied sciences, not including teaching colleges. In the field of the arts (design/music), the conditions for arts students relating to the country offer apply (see below).
This program is valid only for studies in Switzerland. It is not valid for on-the-job studies, part-time studies or correspondence courses.
In the framework of a special allocation, scholarships for advanced arts students (without fixed distribution by country) are offered to the best applicants who are already at an advanced stage of their training. This offer is restricted to those countries which are listed under AR, AP-1 and BR-1 as well as to China and Russia.
The scholarships are offered in principle to foreign governments. The applications have to be submitted for a preliminary selection to the national institution in charge and the Swiss diplomatic representation in the student's country of origin. The Swiss diplomatic representation will thereupon forward the pre-selected applications to the FCS for definitive selection. Finally the Federal Department of Home Affairs awards scholarships on the advice of the FCS.
As part of a special allocation, the Swiss Government provides a number of additional scholarships to postgraduates from Central and Eastern European countries (pool system, no fixed number of scholarships for each country). The conditions are described in a special notice.

Junior Year Study Abroad
Leading experts in international education contend that study abroad takes young people to new environments beyond their natural comfort zones, stretches their world view and encourages independence of thought and confidence. UNCFSP goes one step further and insists that having at least one experience studying and living abroad experience is almost a prerequisite to a successful international service career. Without the language and cultural immersion that should accompany overseas study of a semester or more (as required by IIPP), one can hardly consider an international service professional equipped for effectiveness in today’s global environment.
In preparation for study abroad, fellows complete a Study Abroad Profile listing their countries and programs of interest. During SSPI, fellows have a full day orientation session on overseas study and meet one-on-one with assigned IIPP Study Abroad Consultants expert in advising minority students to discuss program selection and to prepare a study abroad budget.
Fellows study abroad at accredited overseas institutions during the junior year in college. To date, IIPP Fellows have studied across the globe: Argentina, Australia, Belgium, Brazil, Chile, China, Columbia, the Czech Republic, Costa Rica, the Dominican Republic, Egypt, El Salvador, Ecuador, France, Germany, Ghana, Guatemala, Hungary, India, Italy, Japan, Kenya, Mexico, the Netherlands, Nicaragua, Niger, Paraguay, Poland, Puerto Rico, Senegal, South Africa, Spain, Switzerland, Taiwan, Tanzania, the United Kingdom, Venezuela, Vietnam, and Zimbabwe; and the list continues to grow.[source]

Study in United States of America
One of the most popular, most important, and most influential countries in the world is the United States of America. Home to a vastly varying landscape, from snowy peaks to tropical beaches to rustic farmland to gaping caverns, the USA offers something for any taste. It also has a booming economy and uniquely mixed culture. With other countries importing products, entertainment, and ideas created in the USA, it is fair to say that just about every country in the world has been touched by America, but there is nothing like seeing what this land has to offer firsthand.

Study and research in Germany
More than 500 projects! Register and apply now.
Good research relies on cooperation, and international teamwork is becoming increasingly important. This means that scientists and engineers with international experience are increasingly sought after in both business and academia. The number of truly exciting programs abroad for undergraduates in the sciences and engineering is still far too small. Because of this DAAD set out to create unique opportunities for students from the United States and Canada interested in gaining serious research experience in Germany.
RISE is supported with a generous grant from the European Recovery Program (ERP) of the Federal Ministry for Economics and Technology. Large industry organizations in Canada, Germany, and the US also support the program. Sponsors including the German Chemical Industry Fund (FCI) help build ties to industry and finance additional fellowships. We thank all of our supporters for their generous support.

Open Universities Australia - OUA
Who is OUA?
SEEK Learning's partnership with Open Universities Australia (OUA) allows you to study what you want, when you want, from anywhere in the world.
OUA is Australia's leading provider of distance-based university degrees or units. Owned and operated by a consortium of Australia's best universities, OUA offers undergraduate degrees, graduate certificates, graduate diplomas and masters degrees from these top institutions:
Why OUA?
* No pre-requisites or age limits for undergraduates
* Unlimited places
* Receive credit for prior learning and work experience (assessed on individual basis)
Our learning approach allows you to mix and match units to meet your particular career needs. While getting a degree does require you to take certain units, you're free to select other units and combine diverse fields of study. Study individual units or work towards a whole degree - it's all up to you!
There are 4 study periods per year, including the summer holiday period. The study program is flexible - you can fast track your learning by studying during all four study periods, or take breaks in between.
Student Support
OUA students enjoy support services such as online forums, study groups and a dedicated student association. You'll also have library support from the university providing your unit, giving you access to relevant electronic databases and a digital reserve containing the readings for your unit.
Find out more about student support provided by OUA.
Fees
OUA course fees are:
* The lowest university distance education fees in Australia
* More reasonable than on-campus equivalents
* Cheaper than many private training providers
Undergraduate study units start at $595 per unit, and include library services and core study materials. Non- Australian citizens or permanent residents pay an additional overseas student fee of $195 per unit. However, there are no additional fees for studying outside of Australia.
Australian citizens may be able to defer costs using the FEE- Higher Education Loans Program (FEE-HELP), which means you do not need to pay unit costs upfront. Instead, the total cost of your unit fees can be repaid through the taxation system.
Under current legislation, you don't make repayments until your income reaches a minimum threshold of $36,184 per annum.
Contact a SEEK Learning consultant if you need more information about FEE-HELP.

National Security Education Program (NSEP)
The National Security Education Program (NSEP) provides a unique funding opportunity for U.S. students to study world regions critical to U.S. interests (including Africa, Asia, Central & Eastern Europe, Eurasia, Latin America & the Caribbean, and the Middle East). The countries of Western Europe, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand are excluded.
NSEP was designed to provide Americans with the resources and encouragement they need to acquire skills and experiences in areas of the world critical to the future security of our nation, in exchange for a commitment to seek work in the federal government. As students of other cultures and languages, NSEP Boren Scholars and Fellows begin to acquire the international competence needed to communicate effectively across borders, to understand other perspectives, and to analyze economic and political affairs.

The National Security Education Program includes three components:
The National Security Education Program David L. Boren Undergraduate Scholarships for Study Abroad offers opportunities for U.S. students to study in world regions critical to U.S. interests but generally underrepresented in study abroad.
The National Security Education Program David L. Boren Graduate Fellowships encourage U.S. graduate students to add an important language component to their educations.
The National Flagship Language Program offers advanced language training in Arabic, Korean, Mandarin, Persian, or Russian.
