    Scholarships and Funding

    Full scholarship

    This type of aid is usually granted by a sponsor and administered by the University. It is awarded only to students who would otherwise be unable to attend a higher education institution and who have successfully approved the admissions process with high scores.

    Over 1,000 applications are received each year for a full scholarship, of which on average only 50 are awarded.

    Partial scholarships

    For this type of aid, the University covers a percentage of the costs and the student's family covers the difference.

    This percentage of aid is determined after an evaluation in consultation with a financial aid committee.
