About this opportunity

You cannot apply directly: the Admission Office and faculty admission boards nominate candidates from among applicants who apply in time and receive an admission offer before February.
Only September starts are eligible. Check that your nationality is on the fund’s country list (Appendix 1 on the official page) and that you meet your programme’s English requirement.
