Amandus H. Lundqvist Master Scholarships for International Students in Netherlands

Named in honor of the former TU/e President, the Amandus H. Lundqvist Scholarship Program (ALSP) awards scholarships to excellent students who have been admitted to a TU/e Master’s program. The scholarship consists of a tuition fee waiver (worth €15,000) and a contribution to living expenses of €5,000 for each year of the two years of the Master’s program (a total of €10,000 for the 2 year Master’s program). The first year of the living expenses will be funded by the Holland Scholarship.

The scholarships are awarded to students who in comparison with other applicants, have achieved the highest grades from their previous education at world-renowned universities outside the Netherlands.

You automatically enter the selection procedure for ALSP if you submit a complete application for a TU/e Master’s program before the scholarship deadline of February 1 AND are subsequently admitted to a TU/e Master’s program.

You must also meet the Terms and Conditions of the ALSP scholarship.

An application is complete when:

• You have submitted the online application including all required uploads
• Your application documents package have arrived at the TU/e.
• You receive an email from the International Office confirming that both of the above have been received.

TIP! 
Don’t wait too long to apply. We recommend that you submit your application before January 1 so that we can contact you if there are any issues with your application. You may then still have time to remedy this before the February 1 deadline.

• Submit a complete application to the TU/e Master’s program of your choice.
• Only complete applications, including the online application and all application documents, that arrive before February 1 will be eligible to enter the selection procedure for the ALSP and Holland Scholarships (HS).
• If you are admitted to a TU/e Master’s program AND you have a cumulative grade point average (CGPA) of 80% or higher from an internationally renowned university, you will enter the selection procedure for the ALSP and HS scholarships.
• You cannot apply directly to the ALSP or HS scholarships. You must first apply for a TU/e Master’s program (see below).

• Your application to a TU/e Master’s program is also your application for an ALSP and HS scholarship, unless you specify in your online application that you do not wish to be considered for a scholarship.
• Each TU/e Department nominates excellent students to the TU/e scholarship selection committee.
• The applications with the highest grades from the most reputable universities are selected by the TU/e scholarship selection committee to complete an online questionnaire focusing on personality and social skills.
• Scholarships are awarded based on the quality of the previous education and the student’s academic performance therein.
• A one-time scholarship offer will then be made to successful candidates. The offer is non-negotiable.
