SCHOLARSHIPS AND GRANTS

Scholarships

10 scholarships to the net amount of 5,500 EUR each will be made available for those non-Italian students from the countries of the CEI (Central European Initiative) who will have elected their domicile in Friuli – Venezia Giulia when enrolling to the Masters.

Scholarships will be reserved in particular for the following countries belonging to the CEI Network:  Albania, Belarus, Bosnia Hercegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Macedonia, Moldova, Romania, Serbia and Ukraine.

The above mentioned scholarships are addressed to covering board and lodging costs in Trieste during the courses.

For the students to obtain the scholarships, a self-declaration of the elected domicile is required and students have to be enrolled in the Master’s. Scholarships may also be disbursed to students concomitantly with the payment of the fees. The students may, in fact, ask for the fees (EUR 3514,62, inclusive of revenue stamp) to be withheld from the scholarship, thus avoiding direct payment of the fees, and receive immediately a first tranche of the scholarship to the amount of EUR 1,000, whereas, once attendance of the Master’s is verified, the outstanding amount will be disbursed within the beginning of the month of December.
