  • Admission first: Apply for both scholarship and your desired MSc program at once, and ensure you accept your admission offer.
  • Fairness across programs: Scholarships are spread across different Master’s programs to offer opportunities to diverse students.
  • Strategic approach: BI awards scholarships based on institutional priorities, which may include specific programs, diverse student profiles, or partnerships.
  • Beyond grades: While academic merit is assessed using the ECTS scale (international degrees converted), other achievements like extracurricular activities and personal accomplishments are also considered.

Stand out from the crowd by showcasing your academic excellence, unique contributions, and potential to thrive at BI!
