The scholarship is awarded for the duration of the degree program, which is one or two years, depending on the degree program. It will only be renewed for the second year if the student is making satisfactory progress towards the degree. The funds for the scholarships come from the Utrecht Excellence Scholarship Fund, established by Utrecht University and from contributions by Utrecht University alumni.

Scholarship

The Utrecht Excellence scholarship can be awarded as:

  • tuition fees or
  • tuition fees plus the required income linked to a residence permit for study as set by the Immigration and Naturalisation Service, for one year.

In a 2-years Master’s program the scholarship can be renewed for the second year.

  • Belong to the top 10% of your graduating class;
  • Not hold an EU/EEA passport and not be eligible for support under the Dutch system of study grants and loans;
  • Have completed your secondary school and/or Bachelor’s degree outside the Netherlands;
  • Have applied for an international Master’s program with a start date of September 1, 2022.

  • The quality and relevance of the motivation letter for the Master’s program (academic content, intercultural and communication skills, personal motivation);
