Financing Information

Scholarship Funding and Financial Support Details

The Economics Alumni Masters Scholarship is funded through contributions from the university’s alumni network and endowment funds dedicated to supporting graduate education in economics. The amount awarded to each recipient varies annually based on the total funds available and the number of qualified applicants. Typically, the scholarship covers a portion of tuition fees, with some recipients receiving full tuition coverage depending on the strength of their application and financial need. In certain years, limited funds may also be allocated to assist with living expenses such as accommodation and study materials; however, this is not guaranteed and depends on the current funding cycle. The scholarship is disbursed directly to the university to offset tuition charges, and any additional living expense support is provided as a stipend paid to the student. Recipients are required to maintain satisfactory academic progress to continue receiving funding throughout their master's program. The university encourages applicants to explore supplementary financial aid options, as the scholarship may not cover all costs associated with graduate study. Application for the scholarship is separate from admission to the university, and applicants must complete both processes independently. The university’s financial aid office provides guidance on managing tuition payments and other funding opportunities. It is important for students to plan their finances carefully and consider the scholarship as part of a broader funding strategy for their graduate education.

Funding amounts and availability vary each year based on alumni contributions and endowment performance.
Scholarship funds are primarily applied to tuition fees, with limited support for living expenses depending on available resources.
