The application period for GSP Berlin’s Summer Semester 2024 intake, which runs from December 1st to January 15th, is fast approaching. Our unofficial records indicate that since the close of the last application period on January 15th, we’ve had about 500 potential candidates from over 60 countries inquire for more details. As there isn’t a universally accepted method for categorizing countries into regions or groups—each nation has its distinct viewpoints and preferences—we’ve opted to list them by the self-identification of the candidates. Here’s the list of countries:

Argentina, Armenia, Australia, Azerbaijan, Bangladesh, Belgium, Bolivia, Brazil, Cameroon, Canada, Chile, China, Colombia, Czech Republic, Denmark, Ecuador, Egypt, France, Georgia, Germany, Ghana, Hungary, India, Indonesia, Iran, Israel, Italy, Japan, Kazakhstan, Kenya, South Korea, Kuwait, Luxembourg, Malaysia, Mexico, Mongolia, Myanmar, Nepal, Netherlands, Nigeria, Pakistan, Palestine, Peru, Philippines, Poland, Portugal, Russia, Singapore, Slovakia, South Africa, Spain, Sri Lanka, Sweden, Switzerland, Syria, Taiwan, Thailand, United Kingdom, Türkiye, Uganda, United States, Uzbekistan, Venezuela, Zimbabwe

Applying to a global program based in Europe can pose challenges, particularly for non-European applicants. In response to student feedback, we’ve initiated sessions where current GSP students can provide insights about the program from their vantage point. Here are the details for this year’s sessions:
