Needs-based Scholarship Program
Students are selected regardless of financial background
All students at UWC Robert Bosch College are selected regardless of their parents’ financial circumstances. Based on income assessments conducted by the National Committees, approximately 96% of our students require a full scholarship to attend RBC, while a further 30 or so receive partial scholarships. This is made possible through a strong network of sponsors and supporters. Thanks to the scholarship program, RBC is home to a diverse community of individuals from a wide range of cultural, religious, and socio-economic backgrounds. This diversity fosters learning both with and from one another.
The two years I spent in Freiburg have been monumental for my personal development and any success and happiness I have felt since. Coming from a family of modest means, I would not have been able to join the UWC movement without the full scholarship I was fortunate to receive. I get emotional thinking about the donors, teachers, and peers who have given their money, time, passion, compassion, and care in order for me to receive this exceptional educational experience. As such, it was a very easy decision to give back to the RBC community and I hope to be able to continue to donate every month for the rest of my life.
We are a non-profit organization
UWC Robert Bosch College is a non-profit organization financed by public funds and private donations. The school is made possible by the support of UWC Germany, the Robert Bosch Foundation, the State of Baden-Württemberg, the City of Freiburg, B. Braun Melsungen AG and the Heidehof Foundation. Since our foundation in 2014, numerous large and small donors have joined, some of whom finance scholarships for students or sponsor one of our buildings. Thanks to this support, we are able to cover the running costs of the school and ensure that young people receive a place regardless of their financial background.
