Application deadline
The application deadline for September 1 ends on July 31 of the same year.

Who can apply?
Anyone can apply, regardless of nationality. The funding is also available to students who are already enrolled and thus have the opportunity to benefit from the funding in the course of their studies.

Application documents

In addition to the obligatory entrance examination on the main instrument, which must be passed with a good or very good result, the applicant must explain in a statement

the reasons that led him/her to study music
why he/she should be the recipient of the sponsorship
his/her social commitment

Scope of the sponsorship

The sponsorship amounts to 300 euros per month over a period of 12 months. The total amount of 3,600 euros is not taken into account as income for social benefits and therefore has no influence on other grants such as KFW grants or BAföG.

Selection

The selection of applicants is the responsibility of the RPJAM management. Funding as such is not enforceable.
