Financial Assistance
General
WSoS aims to support its students and postdoctoral fellows who face financial challenges during their studies and research. Assistance may be provided in the following forms:
1. Loans
The School operates a loan fund, that enables students and postdoctoral fellows to borrow a modest sum for personal needs. Terms and conditions are detailed in the Loan Procedures document.
To submit a loan request, please fill out the online form via the following link Login Page.
2. Financial Assistance Call for Applications
Throughout the academic year, the School issues a call for financial assistance applications.
This program is intended to provide grants to students facing either sudden or ongoing financial hardship.
All students are eligible to apply, in accordance with the guidelines and criteria specified in the call.
3. Emergency Financial Support
In exceptional cases of urgent and unexpected financial distress when the student’s circumstances do not allow for waiting until the next call for applications, and when a loan is not a feasible option, the School may provide one-time emergency support. This assistance is designed to enable students and postdoctoral fellows to continue their studies and research without disruption.
