Anyone applying to a Master’s program at EPFL is eligible. A limited number of fellowships are awarded to the most deserving candidates, based on academic excellence, qualifications, and motivation.
However, candidates who already hold a Master’s degree or are currently enrolled in a Master’s program at EPFL are not eligible.
After an initial screening by the sections, the Excellence Fellowships Committee awards the fellowships. Selected candidates are notified at the beginning of April (1st round) and early to mid-June (2nd round).
If a selected candidate withdraws or fails to respond, the fellowship is offered to the next candidate on the waiting list, who will receive a new deadline to confirm their matriculation.
