Funding Leadership and Opportunities for Women (FLOW 2016-2020) The Ministry of Foreign Affairs in The Netherlands aims to improve the position of women and girls in the World. Hence another round of funding is now been made available: Funding Leadership and Opportunities for Women (FLOW). Worldwide, some progress has been made in recent decades in attaining women’s rights and equal treatment. Many countries have abolished discriminatory laws and criminalized violence against women. They have made investments in health and education, and in some countries the economic participation of women has increased. In general, however, the pace of change is slow. In some countries and sectors, progress is at a standstill or has even been reversed. Despite major regional and contextual differences, experts agree that there is no country where progress towards gender equality is either assured or irreversible. Call for proposals launched today FLOW funds programs in low- and lower-middle income countries. 93 million EUR is available for the period of 2016-202, for programs aiming at: 1. Combatting violence against women; 2. Participation by women in politics and public administration; and 3. Women’s economic participation and self-reliance Deadline for submitting FLOW proposals is 31 August 2015. More information about FLOW, e.g. policy framework and application form, in the documents below. |

Tuition Free Universities in Germany. Semester fees Semester fees not only cover administrative costs, such as enrolment fees and re-registration fees, but also include a social contribution to the Studentenwerk (local student services organisation) for running the mensas, cafeterias, halls of residence, and advice services. The semester fees also contribute to the official body that represents students at the institution, such as the AStA (student union), and also go towards funding semester tickets for public transport, where applicable. You are obliged to pay semester fees if you wish to study at a higher education institution. Tuition fees Tuition fees are usually charged by private higher education institutions and for postgraduate programmes. Students who exceed the standard period of study by more than four semesters (long-term students) may also be liable to pay tuition fees. In 2007, general tuition fees began to be introduced in Germany, which every student had to pay from the first semester onwards, allowing other fees – such as long-term study fees – to be dropped. In the meantime, however, most German states have abolished tuition fees. Tuition fees in the German federal states – an overview. Source: German Rector’s Conference. Baden-Württemberg no general tuition fees at state higher education institutions (to be abolished from summer semester 2012) Bavaria general tuition fees of between 100 and 500 euros per Semester (to be abolished from winter semester 2013-14) Berlin no general tuition fees at state higher education institutions Brandenburg no general tuition fees at state higher education institutions Bremen no general tuition fees at state higher education institutions; 500 euros per semester for long-term students Hamburg general tuition fees of 375 euros per semester (to be abolished from winter semester 2012-13) Hesse no general tuition fees at state higher education institutions Mecklenburg-West Pommerania no general tuition fees at state higher education institutions Lower Saxony general tuition fees of 500 euros per Semester (to be abolished from winter semester 2014-15); long-term students’ fees between 600 and 800 euros per semester North-Rhine-Westphalia no general tuition fees at state higher education institutions Rhineland-Palatinate no general tuition fees at state higher education institutions; long-term students’ fees of 650 euros per semester Saarland no general tuition fees at state higher education institutions; long-term students’ fees of 400 euros per semester Saxony no general tuition fees at state higher education institutions |

Quota Scheme Scholarships The Norwegian government provides students from developing countries in the South and countries in the Western Balkans, Eastern Europe and in Central Asia with financial support to study for a degree in Norway under the Quota Scheme. The main objective of the Quota Scheme is to contribute to capacity building through education that will benefit the home country of the students when they return. The Quota Scheme is also intended to strengthen relations between Norway and the selected countries and thus contribute to internationalisation at Norwegian institutions of higher education. Most universities and university colleges in Norway participate in the Quota scheme. The institutions involved are allocated a certain number of students under the programme each year. The scheme normally includes courses at Master’s and Ph.D. level in addition to certain professional/Bachelor’s degrees. Most of the Norwegian institutions offer courses and educational programmes in English. Recruitment enrollment The Quota Scheme will only enrol students from institutions (organisations, universities, authorities) which have collaboration agreements with Norwegian universities or university colleges. Norwegian institutions usually do not admit free movers (individual applicants) to this scheme. Only in very special cases will free movers be considered. Please contact the institutions directly for individual information. Students who come to Norway as self-financing students will, as a rule, not be considered as being qualified for the Quota Scheme. To find out which institutions collaborate with Norwegian institutions, please refer to the websites of the Norwegian institutions. You could also ask your home institution about whether they have any sort of collaboration with Norwegian universities / university colleges from the list of participating institutions. Basic general requirements As a student, you must apply directly from your home country. You must have stayed at least one year in your home country directly prior to the planned course of study at the Norwegian university /university college. Students usually apply for degree programmes that serve as a continuation of their studies in their home country or for courses which can be a joint part of a degree programme in their home country (joint degree or sandwich programmes). Most of the programmes offered are at Master’s or PhD level, but the Quota Scheme also offers certain Bachelor’s study programmes. All candidates should typically have the following basic qualifications: Secondary school certificates Minimum two years of higher education from their home country Basic language requirements Most of the study programmes offered under the Quota Scheme are taught in English. Applicants who are not native English speakers therefore must document their proficiency in English. Requirements may differ between institutions and various study programmes. Please see the university /university college’s website for more details about language requirements. A few courses in the Quota Scheme are offered in Norwegian and require good skills in the Norwegian language. Students admitted to study programmes that are mainly taught in Norwegian may receive additional financial support for studying Norwegian language for one year prior to their study. Admission to the Quota Scheme is highly competitive and meeting the minimum requirements is no guarantee for enrollment. |

Each nominated candidate’s application is first considered by a member of the CSC’s panel of advisers with expertise in the subject area concerned, and then by the CSC’s selection committee in competition with other candidates. Applications are considered according to the following selection criteria: Academic merit of the candidate Quality of the proposal Potential impact of the work on the development of the candidate’s home country. |

The Benjamin A. Gilman International Scholarship Program offers grants for U.S. citizen undergraduate students of limited financial means to pursue academic studies or credit-bearing, career-oriented internships abroad. Such international exchange is intended to better prepare U.S. students to assume significant roles in an increasingly global economy and interdependent world. International experience is critically important in the educational and career development of American students, but it can also require a substantial financial investment. The Gilman Scholarship Program broadens the student population that studies and interns abroad by supporting undergraduates who might not otherwise participate due to financial constraints. The program aims to encourage students to choose non-traditional study and intern destinations, especially those outside of Western Europe, Australia and New Zealand. The Gilman Scholarship Program aims to support students who have been traditionally under-represented in education abroad, including but not limited to, students with high financial need, community college students, students in underrepresented fields such as the sciences and engineering, students with diverse ethnic backgrounds, and students with disabilities. The program seeks to assist students from a diverse range of public and private institutions from all 50 states, Washington, DC and Puerto Rico. Award Benefits Over 2,700 scholarships of up to $5,000 will be awarded this academic year for U.S. citizen undergraduates to study or intern abroad. Award amounts will vary depending on the length of study and student need with the average award being approximately $4,000 for fall and spring programs, and $3,000 for summer programs. Applicants who are studying a critical need language while abroad in a country in which the language is predominantly spoken will automatically be considered for the Critical Need Language Award, for a total award of $8,000. Please note that this award is competitive and offered to a limited number of students each year. During the 2013-2014 academic year, 60 Critical Need Language Awards were offered. |
