“Leiden University College (LUC) offers financial support to a limited number of students who may otherwise not be able to attend. Both enrolled students and future students of LUC can request financial support.”

“Recipients will be awarded an amount between 1000 Euro and 3000 Euro per year - exact amount to be determined by LUC on the basis of the applicant's situation and the amount of funds available. Funds are awarded in principle for a period of 3 academic years but are reviewed on an annual basis.”

“You are able to provide documentary evidence that you are unable to study at LUC without financial support.”

“Before 15 March: Log into uSis, go to your LUC application, click on the 'Scholarship' tile and indicate that you want to apply for LUC financial support.”

“The scholarship amounts to € 5,000. You will receive this in the first year of your studies. Please note that this is not a full-tuition scholarship.”

“This scholarship is financed by the Dutch Ministry of Education, Culture and Science as well as several Dutch research universities and universities of applied sciences.”

“The NL Scholarship is meant for international students from outside the European Economic Area (EEA) who want to do their bachelor’s or master’s in the Netherlands.”

“The application period for the 2027-2028 academic year is currently open.”
