TUT scholarships and tuition fees

This page is currently being updated in accordance with student admission criteria 2018

TUT scholarships
TUT o ers a generous scholarship programme for fee-paying students. With the help of the TUT scholarship, TUT continues to
provide excellent international students with high-quality, yet a ordable, education. The TUT scholarship programme consists
of the TUT academic excellence scholarship and tuition fee waivers.

TUT academic excellence scholarship

In 2017, TUT is awarding the TUT academic excellence scholarship to up to nine of the most talented applicants. The TUT
academic excellence scholarships include a full tuition fee waiver as well as an allowance of 7000 € per academic year to cover
living costs. The scholarships are awarded for an academic year and considered on an annual basis.

Tuition fee waivers

The majority of TUT scholarships are awarded as tuition fee waivers to the most talented students. The fee waivers awarded
may cover either 50 % or 100 % of the full tuition fee. Tuition fee waivers are awarded during the admissions process or can be
earned during the studies. The tuition fee waivers awarded in conjunction with the student admission process are full tuition
fee waivers which cover 100 % of the tuition fee. The tuition fee waiver is awarded to a sizeable proportion of the admitted
students.

The tuition fee waivers are awarded for the duration of the normative time for completing the degree (3 academic years for a
Bachelor's degree and 2 academic years for a Master's degree) on the condition that the student progresses in their studies
according to the normative schedule. In order to retain the waiver, the student must complete at least 55 credits in an
academic year. The credits must be for courses included in the degree requirements. If the student completes 40-55 credits in
an academic year, the fee waiver will be reduced to 50%. Students who complete less than 40 credits in an academic year will
lose their TUT scholarship entirely.

For students who have not been awarded a TUT scholarship in the admissions process, it is possible to earn a tuition fee
waiver for the second or third (in BSc) year of studies by progressing in studies speedily. A student who has not received a TUT
scholarship at all can earn a 50 % fee waiver by completing at least 65 credits of courses included in the degree requirements
in an academic year. A 100 % fee waiver can be earned by completing at least 75 credits of courses included in the degree
requirements in an academic year.

For the Bachelor's degree students who have been awarded a TUT scholarship at admission but had their waiver reduced to
50 % for the second year, it is possible to earn a 100 % waiver again by completing at least 65 credits of courses included in
the degree requirements in an academic year. If a student on a 50 % fee waiver completes less than 55 credits in an academic
year, s/he will lose the fee waiver entirely.

Students wishing to be considered for a TUT scholarship must apply for the scholarship at the same time with their
application for admission. There is no separate scholarship application; the scholarship application is made by ticking the
appropriate box in the application for admission. Applicants who are admitted will get the decision concerning admission and
scholarship at the same time. The TUT scholarships are awarded on the basis of academic excellence, evaluated on the basis of
the student admission criteria. Applicants who are admitted to TUT and awarded the TUT scholarship must con rm their
study place at TUT within two weeks of the admissions decision in order to retain the TUT scholarship. If they fail to con rm
their study place within this deadline and only con rm by a later deadline, they will lose the scholarship.
