Netherlands Study: A featured scholarship is the Holland Scholarship for International Students.
Do you plan to attend Van Hall Larenstein University of Applied Sciences full-time for your bachelor's degree? Having a nationality from outside the European Economic Area (EEA), are you a top student? To see if you're eligible to apply for the Holland Scholarship, check the list below!
The Dutch Ministry of Education, Culture, and Science as well as Dutch research universities and universities of applied sciences fund the Holland Scholarship.

The Holland Grant is not a full-tuition scholarship; it is worth €10,000. After receiving full admission to a full-time bachelor's degree at VHL with English as the primary language of instruction, the awarded candidates will receive the money in the first year of their studies.
