This information is for students from foreign universities.
As the Summer School is financed through participant's fees and
has no funds of its own, it cannot offer any scholarship, grants or financial aid.
The Swiss National Science Foundation legally cannot give any financial assistance to
students from foreign universities for attending the Summer School.
If you need financial assistance to attend the Summer School:
- Check with your country's national science foundation or equivalent.
Many countries finance participation
in Summer Schools.
- In the past, Unesco has granted financial assistance for Summer Schools, especially for
students from Eastern European and Non-European countries.

- Please inquire also within your own university; many students
are not aware that
most universities and other academic institutions
have special grants, prices etc;
these are sometimes limited to students
in specific disciplines/areas/themes etc.
You should know that these grants often require an
early application.
- Unesco publishes every year a world-wide guide to grants, subsidies etc.

Please enquire at your own institution; most universities have a special office or
a contact person who can help you to find out what is available.
