Requirements for Masters Scholarships Qualification

Scholarships are awarded on the basis of academic overall assessment in which all application information and educational documents as well as the scholarship application letter are taken into consideration and can be decisive. The scholarship applications are processed by admissions committees in the Faculties and a University scholarship council. The decision on the scholarship will be communicated to you together with information on admission.

When applying for a scholarship to bachelor’s programmes, you will be asked to place the Tampere University study options you are applying for admission to in your order of preference in your scholarship application. It is only possible to receive one scholarship offer, specific to one bachelor’s study option at Tampere University. Scholarships are awarded on the basis of application information and the scholarship application letter to the most successful and motivated applicants in each study option. In your scholarship application letter, you will be asked to describe your interest and motivation in studies in the study options you apply for admission to. In case you are admitted and qualify for a scholarship in several Tampere University bachelor’s study options, you will only receive a scholarship offer in the study option which is highest in your order of preference among the study options in which you qualify for a scholarship. Please note that admission to studies is a separate process and you may still be admitted to more than one study option, and the early bird offer is available in the study options in which you do not receive a scholarship offer.
