Radboud University offers two types of financial support — fully funded and partially funded scholarships. Each option provides substantial assistance to help students cover tuition and living expenses during their studies.

1. Fully Funded Scholarships:
Recipients of the fully funded award receive a complete tuition fee waiver valued at approximately €18,000, covering the full cost of the selected Master’s program.

2. Partially Funded Scholarships:
Students awarded the partially funded scholarship benefit from a significant reduction in tuition fees, paying only €2,695 instead of the full international rate.

In addition to tuition support, both categories of scholarships include:

• • Coverage of visa application costs
  • Residence permit fees
  • Health insurance
  • Liability insurance through the Insurance Passport for Students (IPS)

This comprehensive package ensures that scholars can pursue their academic goals with financial peace of mind while focusing on building global competencies and research experience.
