The aim of the orange tulip scholarship is to increase awareness about the opportunities in these countries and how they can benefit from investing there. The orange tulip scholarship provides opportunities for bright students from numerous Neso nations to study in the Netherlands.
If you are chosen for this scholarship, you will receive a 25% discount on your standard tuition for non-EU/EFTA students. In short, this is for two years of study for master’s students.

This scholarship is for students from Brazil, China, Indonesia, Korea, Mexico, and Russia, who have completed their Bachelor’s degrees and are studying at a Dutch university.
