EPFL Master Excellence Fellowships

Dec 15, 2026 · 66 days left

Fellowships of CHF 10,000 per semester, with guaranteed housing, for the most outstanding students starting a master's at EPFL. Anyone applying to an EPFL master's is eligible, apart from those who already hold a master's or are enrolled in one at EPFL. Selection weighs academic results alongside research, entrepreneurship and other experience. The fellowship is renewed for the second year if the student earns at least 50 ECTS credits with an overall average of 5.0/6. Apply through EPFL's online master's application and tick the box to be considered. There are two rounds, matching the master's deadlines: 15 December (recommendation letters by 31 January) and 31 March (letters by 15 April).

You'll leave ScholAfrik to apply with EPFL (École polytechnique fédérale de Lausanne).
