Scholarship

Scholarship Information and Criteria

Requirements:

Families with children at the age from 3 (entry of kindergarten) are eligible to apply for a scholarship. Children at the above-named age don’t need any prior knowledge of the German language. Families should be interested in the German language, school system and culture. Excluded are families who get the school fees reimbursed by their employer and families who owe school fees to the GISA.

Scholarship type:

The scholarship includes a discount of 40% on the annual school fees. Please note that there may be increases in the school fees, which in turn will also apply to the scholarship holders of the German International School Accra.

The admission and registration fees are excluded from the discount.

The scholarship is awarded until end of kindergarten/ preschool, end of class 4 (end of primary school) and until graduation (class 10). A review of the financial situation is done after every school form. A decision on the continuation of the scholarship is then made and communicated to the respective family.

There is no entitlement to a discount. General reductions are subjected to budgetary constraints.
