The Stipendium Hungaricum programme is a scholarship founded by the Hungarian State, including a full tuition fee waiver and many other benefits, for international students from specific non-EU partner countries who wish to study in Hungary.
It is available on five continents in over 90 countries, attracting tens of thousands of international students each year. For more information about the scholarship programme please visit https://stipendiumhungaricum.hu/
Please pay particular attention as not all countries’ citizens can apply for all of our programmes. This will depend on the bilateral agreement between the governments of the sending countries and Hungary.
Eligibility criteria
You can apply for scholarships and study programmes that are available based on the bilateral education agreements between Hungary and your home country’s partner organization.

Benefits of the scholarship
