ACADEMIC EXCELLENCE SCHOLARSHIPS
International students can apply for the Academic Excellence Scholarship, which is intended to honor exceptional academic success. Undergraduate and graduate students can apply for the Academic Excellence Scholarship, which recognizes and honors exceptional achievement. For this scholarship, an application is required.
What can you get?
Essentially, academic scholarships are cash awards that can be used to offset living expenses, partially or fully cover tuition, or both.
Having said that, you can come across academic scholarships that offer additional advantages or rewards, such as athletic or music scholarships. For instance, in addition to a tuition fee decrease, one university provides a package of lifestyle and housing incentives to deserving students, such as theater passes, airfares home, and housing upgrades.
Eligibility
- To be eligible to apply for a master’s program, prospective students must have an exceptional academic record and a clean personal record, as evidenced by their grades, extracurricular activities that demonstrate leadership or social engagement, standardized test scores (such as TOEFL, IELTS, C2 Proficiency, and C1 Advanced), and one letter of recommendation, if not already provided. A professor who is familiar with the potential student and can remark on his or her academic abilities and aptitude for pursuing one of our Master’s programs—including academic writing and analytical skills—should ideally write the reference letter.
- Applicants must have been granted admission as full-time students to the Brussels School of Governance Master’s Program.
- To be eligible for a scholarship, you must have a certain minimum Grade Point Average (GPA). Motivation and extracurricular activities will also be taken into account by the school. It seems that obtaining a scholarship will be aided by increased enthusiasm, higher test scores, and involvement in extracurricular activities.
- There are no restrictions on citizenship or place of residence. Every application will receive the same and fair treatment.
