Description
Radboud University wants to contribute to a healthy and free world with equal opportunities for all.
They find it important to realise a diverse and inclusive campus for all our students and staff. In order to give all talented students the opportunity to become part of our academic community, including students from non-EU/EEA countries who might be financially struggling to pay the institutional Radboud University tuition fee, they offer a number of full scholarships.

Benefits
The scholarship covers the full tuition fee and living costs of €13,200 (as set by the IND, the Dutch Immigration and Naturalisation Service, in January 2025, for 2025-2026) for the duration of the Master’s programme.

Application
Application deadline
31 Jan 2026
You can apply by indicating during your application for admission for a Master's programme in the OSIRIS Application system that you wish to apply for a Radboud Encouragement Scholarship. You will then be requested to upload two reference letters and a curriculum vitae (you may upload the same reference letters and CV if you have already uploaded those for your Master’s programme application) and the scholarship motivation letter.
The selection for the scholarship and the admission to the Master's programme are two separate processes: admission to the Master's programme does not imply selection for the scholarship.
Once you enrol at Radboud University, the handling fee will be refunded to you.
