Aalto University Postgrad Scholarship 2025 in Finland

Aalto University in Finland has announced the opening of applications for its Master’s degree programs for Autumn 2025, offering a wide array of opportunities in art and design, business and economics, and technology and engineering. With a reputation for academic excellence and innovation, Aalto University provides scholarships for eligible fee-paying students, making it an attractive destination for those seeking a transformative educational experience.

The Aalto University Excellence Scholarship is available to outstanding applicants and offers tuition fee waivers based on merit. Scholarship recipients are determined through a rigorous evaluation process specific to each study program. However, the scholarship does not cover living expenses, and students must ensure they have sufficient financial resources, estimated at 800 euros per month, to support their stay in Finland.

Eligibility for the scholarship is open to applicants from outside the EU/EEA countries and Switzerland who are liable to pay tuition fees. Candidates can indicate their interest in the scholarship directly on the Master’s program application form by answering “yes” to the relevant question. Scholarship decisions are announced along with admissions results, and all decisions are final.

Aalto University offers Master’s programs across three key fields:

  • Art and Design, leading to a Master of Arts (Art and Design) degree.
  • Business and Economics, culminating in a Master of Science (Economics and Business Administration).
  • Technology and Engineering, with degrees including Master of Science (Technology), Master of Science (Architecture), and Master of Science (Landscape Architecture).

The application process requires candidates to prepare and submit all required documents, including degree certificates, transcripts, proof of language proficiency, and a valid passport or government-issued ID. Certain programs may also require additional materials such as portfolios, motivation letters, CVs, or test scores (e.g., GMAT/GRE for business programs).

Applications open on 28 November 2024, at 9:00 am (UTC +2), and close on 27 December 2024, at 3:00 pm (UTC +2). All supporting documents must be uploaded by 3 January 2025, at 3:00 pm (UTC +2). Admissions results will be published on 9 April 2025, and successful applicants must accept their offers by 29 April 2025.
