Are there any scholarships currently open that you can guide me to apply for in Ireland/Germany?
Yes, Germany currently has the Expatrio Scholarship open with a September 30, 2026 deadline, plus the rolling Deutschlandstipendium paying three hundred euros a month. Ireland's main Government of Ireland International Education Scholarship usually opens in late January, so you should track Irish university merit awards in the meantime.
Yes, you have live scholarship windows for Germany right now, though Ireland's biggest national scholarship has not opened yet for the upcoming cycle. Knowing the difference in timing helps you avoid missing a live deadline for Germany while you wait on Ireland.
What Is Open or Coming Up
| Scholarship | Country | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Expatrio Scholarship | Germany | Open now, deadline September 30, 2026 |
| Deutschlandstipendium | Germany | Rolling, applied through individual universities |

How You Should Approach Each Country
For Germany, the Expatrio Scholarship asks you to submit a short video of under two minutes on why you chose Germany, and it funds over forty thousand euros across ten prizes, so it is worth entering even as a smaller opportunity. The Deutschlandstipendium pays three hundred euros a month and is open to international students, but you need to apply through your specific German university rather than a central German portal.
My Advice
Apply to the Expatrio Scholarship now if you are targeting Germany, since its deadline is fixed and close, and start checking your shortlisted German university's Deutschlandstipendium page for its own rolling deadline. For Ireland, submit your course application to Trinity, UCD or UCC as early as possible, since Global Excellence Scholarships there are assessed automatically alongside your application rather than through a separate open window.
