10 Jul 2026 · Answered by Shairal Pathak · 1 min read
Application deadlines for DAAD scholarships for Master's programs starting in January 2027 typically fall in the second half of 2026. Exact deadlines depend on the program:
- All Academic Disciplines: 2 November 2026
- Architecture: 23 September 2026
- Music: 24 September 2026
For English-taught programs, DAAD usually requires an overall IELTS score of 6.0 (no band below 5.5), though some programs may ask for a higher score, such as 6.5.
Deadlines and requirements are subject to change.
