Grants
Socrates/Erasmus
Socrates-Erasmus grants are available for EU citizens (students and lecturers) who take part in exchange programmes at one of the partner schools of Zuyd University. General information on these grants are available at the central international office of Zuyd University . The forms that are to be filled in to qualify for these grants can be obtained via Mr Patrick Schoenmakers.

VSB grants
Students of IBMS who intend to continue their studies abroad after graduation at our business school (e.g. at a Master's programme) can apply for a VSB grant. You will have to show evidence of your eligibility to be enrolled in a study programme and you will be subjected to a selection procedure. The selection committee will assess whether your plan meets the requirements of the VSB organisation. The number of grants is limited. Detailed information is available at the central international office of Zuyd University (Bureau Internationalisering). Also check out the following website: www.vsbfonds.nl/beurzen.

The Nuffic website offers full information on all the funding programmes that are available in The Netherlands (www.nuffic.nl).

Partner universities
As a result of many links with partner universities in Europe and in the USA, you can spend part of your studies abroad (the compulsory study exchange will take place in the first semester of the third year). Due to bilateral agreements, you generally don't have to pay extra tuition fees while studying at a partner university. In many cases, EU students will receive financial support from the European Union (Socrates/Erasmus programme). The ECTS (European Credit Transfer System) ensures a smooth recognition and transfer of study credits obtained abroad.

The co-operation with the US partner universities is enabled through the Magellan Exchange programme. For full details on this programme and online registration please consult the Magellan Exchange website.
