ESE has a rolling admissions system and as such there is no deadline for applications for a particular intake. However, given the limited number of places on the programme, we recommend that you present your application as early as possible.

The scholarship awarded by ESE is a partial deduction from the tuition fee where each student profile is considered individually, based on both the academic merit and need of the applicant. It is therefore important that scholarship applications provide a complete profile of the student’s personal, professional and/or academic merits.

To apply for the ESE Scholarship students must complete the scholarship application form and send it together with the application form and personal documents, including a financial statement.
