Finding scholarships

Educational stipend:
All Dutch students receive a government stipend, whether or not they live with their parents.
Certain foreign students can also receive this grant under certain conditions:
• residency permit A (yellow): business permit
• residency permit B (pink): proof of admission as a refugee
• residency permit C (light blue): permit of undetermined length
• residency permit D (green): permit for a specific purpose; this permit is usually in the form of a special stamp in the passport. The permit should mention that it is granted "without restrictions" (for example, family relocation, stay with parents, humanitarian reasons). A series of other conditions are required in this case.
• residency permit CE (blue): if your father or mother or both are from a country within the European Union and work or have worked in the Netherlands.

You cannot benefit from the state financing of studies if you are the holder of a residency permit D that includes restrictions. This is the case if you are in the Netherlands:
• for provisional purposes (for example, to study)
• on business
• living with a Dutch family
• living at your own expense
• living with a partner.

For full information on all programs of financial aid, it is best to consult the university directly.
