Scholarships
Delft University of Technology (TU Delft) aims to attract the world’s brightest students to its international classrooms. For that reason, it has established several scholarship programmes specifically designed to offer talented and motivated international students the opportunity to pursue a MSc degree at TU Delft.
Do you want to apply for a Scholarship?\ Submit your complete MSc application with the mandatory scholarship documents (including 2 reference letters and scholarship application form) before the deadline.\ Your MSc application will then be reviewed and an admission decision given; at that moment you will also be considered for a Scholarship.
Not sure about the deadline?\ For the correct deadline check which deadline comes first (MSc programme application deadline or Scholarship deadline).\ The first deadline is leading. Candidates must not wait for an admission decision to submit a scholarship application.
Missed the deadline?\ If you wanted to apply for a scholarship but have missed the first deadline, your scholarship application will not be considered.
