If you are chosen as a scholarship recipient and are enrolled to a two-year Master’s degree, you must have completed all courses in the first year to be eligible for the grant again in the second year.
The Radboud Scholarship, together with the Radboud Encouragement Scholarship and the Fulbright-Radboud Scholarship, cannot be combined. You may apply for more than one scholarship if you are eligible, but only one will be awarded. Please keep in mind that you cannot apply for both the Radboud Scholarship Programme and the Radboud Encouragement Scholarship at the same time; you can only apply for one of these two.
