Scholarships and grants
There are several options for acquiring scholarships and grants that cover some or all of the costs of a study programme at Van Hall Larenstein. In general candidates should bear in mind that official procedures require several months. It is therefore advisable to make a request for a scholarship as early as possible. It is useless to contact headquarters of organisations. Applications should be made through local projects/delegations only.
An overview of relevant organisations you can apply to can be found here.
At Van Hall Larenstein the Master programmes and the Certificate Programmes are eligible for the Netherlands Fellowship Program (NFP).

The scholarship will apply for students who enrol for the first time in a bachelor programme of Van Hall Larenstein, and start in August 2011.
