Description: The Kipaji Scholarship Fund is founded especially for talented students from countries with upcoming economies. Students from these countries could have the potential, but not the means to study at the University of Twente. The scholarship is meant as additional support for UTS scholarship students.

The Kipaji Scholarship Fund is founded especially for talented students from the Least Developed Countries and Other Low Income Countries on the DAC list. Students from these countries could have the potential, but not the means to study at the University of Twente. The Kipaji Scholarship supports students who also receive a University of Twente Scholarship. Students cannot apply for the Kipaji scholarship through the UT application system. Those interested should indicate in their UTS motivation that they also wish to be considered for the Kipaji scholarship when they meet the criteria.

Eligibility:

applicants must:

  • have the nationality of one of the DAC countries (Least Developed Countries & Other Low Income Countries)
  • have obtained a BSc in their home country or neighbouring country (not a BSc from the UT)
  • receive a (partial) University of Twente Scholarship. The Kipaji Scholarship can ensure that they receive a full scholarship.
  • have achieved good grades for their pre-master programme (average of 8).
  • submit a motivation letter stating how they intend to use their studies at the University of Twente to increase/enhance the scientific level or for entrepreneurial purposes in their home country.
