It does not need to be graphically sophisticated but should contain all pertinent information. Here you should also list smaller scholarships that you have received in the past by your current university or alma mater. It is a clear advantage for the applicant, if the respective advisor is well-known or respected in the field Many graduate schools are interested in the time, place and grade point average of the applicant’s high school degree Only few of the applicants for a PhD position will have an extensive list of publications. However, there are opportunities for young scholars to publish their academic work, for example in academic journals for graduate students, in cooperation with experienced scholars or in a conference publication. A photo is not a must. For nearly all German graduate schools the photo plays no role in the selection of their PhD students. For more information visit academics.com
