Utrecht Excellence Scholarships

Between twenty and twenty five scholarships will be awarded for the 2018-2019 academic year by Utrecht Excellence Scholarships. This program is designed for students who have applied for international master’s programs at Utrecht University, with an ideal start date of September 1, 2018. Although not all programs are eligible for the scholarship, most allow students to participate. Six graduate schools participate in this scholarship program.

Utrecht Excellence Scholarships are available for exceptional graduate program applicants who hail from countries outside of the Netherlands. These scholarships are awarded to students who are in the top ten percent of their graduating classes and hold a non-European Union passport. Recipients of the award will have completed secondary school and Bachelor degree studies outside of the Netherlands, and not be eligible for support under the Dutch system of grants and loans.

This scholarship can be used to cover expenses including, but not limited to, tuition fees and living expenses. It may not consist of a full scholarship, so it might be necessary for recipients to secure additional funding to be able to finance the complete cost of studies. In addition, students requiring a residence permit must provide evidence of sufficient financial means to cover enrollment to the Immigration and Naturalization Office.

The scholarship is awarded for the entire duration of the degree program, either one or two years depending on the program of study. The second year of the scholarship will only be renewed if the student is making satisfactory academic progress.

Interested students should apply before February 1, 2018. Scholarship applications are only processed if an application has already been received for a Master’s program. Candidates will be chosen based on the strength of the applicant in regards to academic excellence in the proposed field of study, test scores, a writing sample, letters of recommendation, and the quality and relevance of the motivation letter used for entry into the Master’s program. The application, along with frequently asked questions and more information, may be found online at www.uu.nl/masters/en/general-information/international-students/financial-matters/grants-and-scholarships/utrecht-excellence-scholarships.
