Student Ambassador Scholarship (SAS)

The UT would like to reward students who put effort into actively promoting the UT abroad. Do you have the opportunity to promote the UT abroad, or can you easily enhance students’ enthusiasm for the UT? You could be rewarded a € 100- Student Ambassador Scholarship (SAS).

You are free to participate in any existing initiatives. Perhaps your foreign host university organizes an international study fair in which you can participate. Or maybe the organisation where you are working as an intern has ties with a local university where you could hold a short presentation to enhance students’ knowledge of and enthusiasm for the UT. Of course, you are free to come up with ideas of your own!

Availability

There is a limited number of Student Ambassador Scholarships available for each year. Therefore only one scholarship per host organisation will be granted. The scholarship is granted according to our first come, first serve policy.

For 2024, the SAS scholarship is no longer available for these organisations: 

All host organisations are still available
