Financial Aid and Fellowship
Applicants to the Master's program may apply for financial aid. Students are required to indicate up to two pre-determined financial aid packages they wish to be considered for from the beginning, and to rank them in order of preference. Full or partial financial aid is awarded on the basis of departmental academic merit ranking and the applicant's selection of the two financial aid packages. Please note: Central European University continues to focus on the CEE/fSU region while extending the CEU Fellowship Program worldwide. Continued priority concerning the awarding of financial aid is given to students from countries of the post-communist world and emerging democracies. However, students from all over the world are eligible to apply for financial aid from CEU. The department accepts SJD students whose qualifications are expected to be of a caliber such that they would be eligible to receive the full CEU fellowship.
