Radboud University 2024 Radboud Scholarship Program for International Students, Netherlands

The Radboud Scholarship Programme is a very selective scholarship programme. It offers talented, highly motivated, non-EEA students with outstanding study results the opportunity to be awarded a scholarship for a complete English-taught Radboud University Master’s programme.

 

Radboud Scholarship Program Benefits

A Radboud Scholarship will reduce your tuition fee to €2.530,-. For example: a grant holder in 2024/2025 will pay a tuition fee of only €2.530,- instead of €17,000. The scholarship also covers costs for visa, residence permit, health insurance and liability insurance for your stay in the Netherlands (Aon Student Insurance). The costs of living and studying in the Netherlands are not covered by the scholarship.

 

Radboud Scholarship Program Requirements

All English-taught Master’s programmes are eligible for the Radboud Scholarship (with the exception of Erasmus Mundus Master's programmes and joint-degree Master's programmes).

  2. are not eligible for the lower EU/EEA tuition fee for other reasons.
