Dr Kafoutchoni’s reading

The key word here is “In-Region”: it does not only change the monthly amount, it also unlocks travel and health insurance, whereas In-Country is narrower. The real filter comes next from academic strength, because the degree classification, how recent it is, and the recommendation must all point in the same direction. Proof of admission may come later, but it must be secured early with 2iE so that the scholarship can be activated without blockage. Submit the complete file on the DAAD Portal, then secure the proof of admission before November 12, 2026.
