Funded By: Universities & Colleges
Institution: Radboud University, Netherland
Slot: N/A
Duration: 2 years 4 semesters

The Radboud Scholarship Program gives smart and motivated students from outside Europe (non-EEA countries) a chance to study a full Master’s degree at Radboud University in the Netherlands and pay much less in tuition fees.

Benefits and Duration

If selected, your tuition fee will be reduced from about €18,000 to just €2,530 for the 2026/2027 academic year.
The scholarship also pays for your visa, residence permit, and student insurance (Aon Student Insurance). However, it does not cover your living costs while in the Netherlands.

Eligibility

You can apply for the Radboud Scholarship if you

Have a non-EU/non-EEA passport
Are not eligible for the lower EU/EEA tuition fee
Hold a Bachelor’s degree earned outside the Netherlands
Have not previously studied or earned a degree in the Netherlands (except short exchange programs)
Meet the English language requirements for your chosen Master’s program
Have been fully admitted to an English-taught Master’s program starting September 2026
Can meet visa requirements for studying in the Netherlands
Plan to study full-time at Radboud University

Required Documents

When applying, prepare these documents:

Academic transcripts
Passport copy
Detailed CV or résumé
Motivation letter
Two reference letters

How to Apply

Go to the Radboud University scholarship webpage.
Apply for your chosen Master’s program using the OSIRIS Application System.
Tick the box that says you want to apply for the Radboud Scholarship.
Upload your CV and two reference letters (you can reuse the same ones from your program application).
Submit your application before the deadline.

Please note: being admitted to a Master’s program does not automatically mean you’ll get the scholarship — both selections are separate.
