Are there scholarships available that cover both tuition and living expenses without needing a blocked account in Germany for a Master's?

Yes, in Germany, some fully funded scholarships cover both tuition fees and living expenses, so you may not need a blocked account for your visa.

Options like DAAD Study Scholarships and political foundation scholarships (such as Heinrich Böll or Friedrich Ebert) offer monthly stipends for living costs, health insurance, and sometimes travel. Most public universities in Germany already waive tuition fees for international Master's students, so these scholarships can cover your full financial requirement.

Competition is high and you’ll need strong academics, language proficiency (like IELTS), and a strong application. If awarded, these scholarships usually serve as proof of financial resources for your visa.
