Hi, I’m a PhD student and I got a summer internship at the University of Bonn paid by scholarship. It’s for under 90 days, do I need to get a work visa, student visa or other? I am a US citizen. It’s confusing what I hear online and even through emailing the German consulate. Would love to hear from someone else if they had to or not. Thank you.
You don't need a visa to enter as a tourist or student. As a student you'd only need to get a visa if overstaying 90 days. German consulate should be able to confirm.
But what about getting paid by scholarship?
Depends on your student status?
Reach out to the office of international students at Uni of Bonn.
