MSc Programmes

For the UNESCO-IHE MSc Programmes that start in October 2011, the application procedure for an NFP fellowship is as follows:

If you wish to apply for an NFP scholarship please keep in mind that there are two deadlines:

1. A UNESCO-IHE application deadline which is 24 January 2011: apply for academic admission by completing and sending in the UNESCO-IHE application form for MSc programmes. Send this form and other required documents by air-mail to UNESCO-IHE. All applications received before 24 January 2011 can still be considered for admission. If you are late: please consider sending your application by DHL.
2. An NFP fellowship application deadline, which is 1 February 2011: apply online by completing the application form via the website of the Nuffic (online application will be possible from 1 November 2010 till 1 February 2011). UNESCO-IHE receives a message that you have applied for an NFP scholarship and will inform Nuffic whether or not you have been academically accepted. However, in order to do so, UNESCO-IHE needs to be in possession of your application for academic admission, therefore send your application form in time.

You can apply for academic admission and the NFP fellowship at the same time.
