Scholarships
For incoming students: Academic Excellence Scholarship (AES) – BA programmes
The Brussels School of Governance may award Academic Excellence Scholarships (AES) to students in its BA programmes who have outstanding academic records in secondary school and whose extra-curricular achievements show evidence of leadership in today’s global society. Other factors include one letter of recommendation from their secondary school and, in certain cases, standardised test scores.
The School’s merit-based scholarship system can provide up to 50% reduction in tuition per semester. These scholarships will be renewed if the student maintains superior academic performance during each semester of their 3-year Bachelor programme. The scholarship will be directly applied to the student’s tuition fees.
The deadline to apply for the scholarships is 1 March for Fall entry and 1 October for Spring entry.
For current students: Andrée and Franz Bingen Fund
Our School has a long tradition of granting prizes and scholarships in honour of Andrée and Franz Bingen. The Franz Bingen Honours Prize and the Andrée Bingen Senior Scholarship Award are granted every year. In 2018, the Andrée and Franz Bingen Fund was established to guarantee a fair assignment of these prizes and scholarships in the long term.
