  • are without student status for the first year and at the same time are still enrolled in a higher education or post-secondary institution from the previous indent (i.e. “pausing”).

Up to 10 applicants will be entitled to a one-time financial aid, and an individual applicant may be awarded a one-time financial aid in the amount of €400.00.

The deadline for submitting applications is 9/10/2020 inclusive.
