NEW: HAUS International Summer School Scholarship

Heidelberg Alumni in the US set up two scholarships for a German language course at Heidelberg University.

This course allows scholarship recipients to improve their language skills at Germany's oldest university while experiencing culture and society in the beautiful city of Heidelberg. The month-long International Summer School of German Language and Culture takes place every year in August.

The scholarship is provided for candidates with strong academic backgrounds who can also fulfill the role of ambassador for Heidelberg Alumni U.S. (HAUS) upon their return from Heidelberg.

HAUS Sholarship

Heidelberg Alumni in the US support Bachelor and Master students from the US within the HAUS Scholarship.

The scholarship recipients will have the opportunity to study for one semester at Heidelberg University. With this scholarship for studying abroad supporting young people the transatlantic ties between the US and Germany are tightened.

"Having the opportunity to study at one of the most prestigious universities in Germany is both an honor and a privilege. The quality of education is simply outstanding. My professors are leaders in their fields of research, and my peers are world-class. The HAUS scholarship considerably eased the burden of finances, it also ensured a smooth transition during my move to Heidelberg, and offered a network of support for assistance and guidance", said Cameron Croft, Oklahoma, HAUS Scholarship recipient in 2015.

Amirana Scholarship

Scholarship fund to support future doctors

Thanks to a 2016 initiative by two alumni from the USA, there is now a new financial support option for studying Medicine and Dentistry at Heidelberg University: the Amirana Scholarship.
The scholarship was set up following a donation from Dr. Annelene J. Amirana and Dr. Mahomed T. Amirana. They married after meeting in Heidelberg in the 1950s during their medical studies and subsequently worked as doctors for many years in the United States. [Read on]

The Amirana Scholarship Fund offers sholarships to medical and dentistry students experiencing financial hardships through no fault of their own as well as future students in these fields who cannot finance their studies without assistance. [Further Details]
