NL Scholarship

Design Academy Eindhoven participates in the NL Scholarship, supported by The Netherlands’ Ministry of Education, Culture and Science and DAE. The NL Scholarship provides a partial scholarship for the first year of your studies at Design Academy Eindhoven. The scholarship includes a stipend of € 5,000 and is awarded once for the first year of study. Please note that this scholarship covers living expenses and is not intended to cover tuition fees.

DAE offers 5 NL Scholarships for incoming students at Master level. Currently, there are no NL Scholarships available for incoming students at Bachelor level.

The NL Scholarship is exclusively available to new students who have not studied in a Dutch higher education institution before. Due to the limited number of available scholarships, NL Scholarships will exclusively be awarded to new students starting their Master studies in 2024.

General application criteria: →Your nationality is non-EEA (with the exception of Switzerland and Surinam). →You do not have a degree from, or previously studied at, an education institution in the Netherlands.
