Goal
Eligible to apply are students that have been awarded good grades and can be expected to complete their studies within one year. The grant is also meant to support international students – who without their own doing are experiencing financial difficulties – in successfully completing their course of study, making it possible for them to focus on their final exams and thesis.
Grant period

Selection process
