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 degree programme.
Scholarship Description
Each year, a number of partial scholarships are awarded within the Radboud Scholarship Programme for the duration of one of the English taught Master’s degree programmes (with the exception of Erasmus Mundus Master’s programmes and joint-degree Master’s programmes).
For 2023/2024, a maximum of 26 Radboud Scholarships are available: Faculty of Arts (1), Faculty of Law (9), Faculty of Medical Sciences (1), Nijmegen School of Management (2), Faculty of Philosophy, Theology and Religious Studies (1), Faculty of Science (10), Faculty of Social Sciences (2).
Award Value
A Radboud Scholarship will reduce your tuition fee to € 2.314. For example: a grant holder in 2022/2023 will pay a tuition fee of only €2.314, instead of €16,000. The scholarship also covers costs for visa, residence permit, health insurance and liability insurance for your stay in the Netherlands.
Eligibility Criteria
You will only be eligible to apply for a Radboud Scholarship if you:
- hold a non-EU/non-EEA passport.
- are not eligible for the lower EU/EEA tuition fee for other reasons.
- have (will obtain) a Bachelor’s degree achieved outside the Netherlands, have no degrees achieved in the Netherlands and did not receive any previous education in the Netherlands (exchange programmes excluded, provided that they are part of the bachelor degree achieved outside the Netherlands).
- meet the English language proficiency requirement for the Master’s programme of your choice.
- have been fully admitted to the English-taught Master’s degree programme starting 1 September 2023 as stated in the formal letter of admission.

Application Procedure
How to apply: You can apply by indicating during your application for admission to a Master’s program in the OSIRIS application system that you want to apply for a Radboud scholarship. You will then be asked to upload three additional documents: two letters of reference and a resume. If you have already uploaded these documents for the Master’s program application, you can re-upload the same documents for your scholarship application.
Selection for the scholarship and admission to the Master’s program are two separate processes: admission to the Master’s program does not imply selection for the scholarship.
Application Deadline: Complete your Radboud Scholarship application using the online OSIRIS Application system on 28 February 2023 23:59 CEST at the latest.
