The Sigmund Freud Eastern European Scholarships.
We are happy to announce that we are able to offer a significant number of scholarships to qualified applicants from Eastern Europe. These scholarships are determined on the basis of both need and academic promise. Aside from the Sigmund Freud Eastern European Scholarships, we do not typically offer financial aid for the Summer School. Applicants are expected to secure their own funding for tuition, travel and room and board. There are numerous grant-giving bodies that dispense funding for these purposes, and applicants who are unable to meet costs are encouraged to enquire about such sources from their home country. Particularly in the case of students, the students home university will often have funds available specifically for the purposes of such programs. In exceptional cases, we are occasionally able to offer financial aid to extremely talented individuals who would not
otherwise be able to attend the Summer School. If you feel that this applies to you, please mark the appropriate section in the application form.

HOUSING
