Student Comments

"The first ten minutes of my first lecture was a golden moment: realizing I was actually understanding the professor and his humor without really thinking (or without thinking I was thinking)."
- Jessamyn Leonard, Kenyon College

"Tübingen is a lovely town, the university has classes to suit everyone, and the Goethe and Deutsch Kompakt programs were excellent preparation."
- Kendall Grady, DePauw University

"I loved the independence in this program. It was much harder than some other programs here, but I feel like I came away with more. The language courses in the summer are great, and the classes at the university were amazing experiences."
-Elizabeth Graber, Northwestern University

"Meeting people at the Goethe Institut was excellent. There were people from 16 different countries in my class alone and I got along with all of them!"
- Emily Moxon, Albion College

"I learned so much in this year, academically and personally. I know now that I could work in my field anywhere in the world and make it work and be successful. I also know that I will make friends anywhere, and that I can stand to be alone with myself until I do."
- Rebecca Campbell, Georgia State University

"The program really attempts to let you become a real German university student. The Goethe Institut was a fantastic way to prepare for the semester!"
- Emily Hunter, Goucher College

"The immigration seminar brought together my Ethnikunterricht course on race relations, my German politics course, my volunteer work with the Asylzentrum, and my school visits, giving me a multidisciplinary approach on the expereinces of foreign children in Germany."
- Maika Watanabe, Swarthmore College

"I would recommend this program highly. The Goethe Institut, Orientation Program and University semester were all excellent."
-Eric Anderson, University of Florida

"In talking with students in and from other countries, Antioch provides perhaps the best opportunity to have an experience through German citizens."
- Warren Gasper, Bowdoin College

"This program is good for people who know what they want to do because the program is flexible enough to let students pursue their interests anywhere."
- Kari Bernard, University of New Hampshire

Financial Aid

Making inquiries and arrangements for financial aid is the responsibility of the student. Many students have been able to apply financial aid from their home institution to the AEA in Germany Program.

Early contact with the home institution's financial aid and study abroad offices is strongly advised.
According to the reauthorization of the Higher Education Act (102-325), federal financial aid is transferable and applicable to study abroad.
Individual payment plans through Antioch Education Abroad may be arranged.

AEA has compiled a list of resources for outside grants and scholarships that may be applicable to this study abroad program. We strongly recommend that students begin the scholarship and grant application process as early as possible, as these deadlines may differ considerably from AEA deadlines.

Download the 2009/2010 AEA Scholarship and Grant Resource Guide (in PDF format).

Outside Scholarships can be of great help. In past years our students have been very successful applying for German Academic Exchange Scholarships (DAAD). See these links for possible scholarships:

Also, Baden-Württemberg, the state in which the University of Tübingen resides, may offer scholarships. This application must be done through Antioch Education Abroad at the time you apply for Antioch in Germany. Both are substantial financial scholarships.

Should you have any further questions about financial aid and/or costs, please contact Antioch Education Abroad and visit our FAQ page.
