Selection
process

Your Master’s
programme and scholarship applications will be assessed by the Faculty at which
you have applied.

1. First
   of all, the Faculty will assess your Master’s application. Once you have
   been accepted for the Master’s programme, the Faculty will assess your
   scholarship application.
2. Subsequently
   the faculty will send a list with eligible candidates to the Maastricht
   University selection committee. This committee will make the definitive
   selection of the nominated candidates.
3. If you
   have been awarded a scholarship, you will receive an official acceptance
   letter.
4. You
   must sign and return this letter to the Scholarship Office.

All aspects of your
application count towards the assessment of the application. The Scholarship
Committee also looks at: academic excellence, your motivation, status of the
institute you studied at in your home country, the match of the chosen master’s
programme with your previous qualification(s), level of this previous
qualification (or qualifications), your career planning, and your references.
