    Scholarships - Governmental scholarships

    The Swiss Government offers scholarships to foreign students and artists on the basis of reciprocity or within the framework of a scholarship pool to several countries. Scholarships are granted to postgraduate candidates or researchers from both industrial and development countries.
    Candidates should, in the first instance, find out from their own country's authorities wether they are entitled to a government scholarship or should approach the Swiss embassy or consulate (www.eda.admin.ch/eda/en/home/reps.html) in their home country. A list of the relevant countries and further information on the governmental scholarships, such as application requirements, duration of scholarship, scholarship amount, application procedure etc. are available at www.sbf.admin.ch/eskas-e.html Before applying, candidates (who must be under 35 of age and proficient in English, German, French or Italian) should get in touch with a professor (www.proff.ch) or with the responsible service of the programme at the chosen Swiss higher Education institution in order to get a written confirmation of acceptance.
    To find out wether a Swiss University offers scholarships to international students, candidates are advised to check the website of the University in question.
