In adddition to its comprehensive financial aid packages, CEU offers other types of financial support for students after they have enrolled.

1. Erasmus Mobility Scheme

Students enrolled at CEU wishing to spend 3 to 12 months studying at another country’s institution may be eligible for an Erasmus study grant. This grant contributes towards covering the difference in living expenses abroad.

2. Academic Awards

CEU provides incentives for academic excellence and rewards those promising students who, with their work, have shown outstanding academic potential. The Academic Awards are granted to both Master's and doctoral students.

3. Research and Travel Funds

CEU believes in giving its students opportunities to access as much knowledge as possible. That is why the university provides Travel Grants for students, contributing to the cost of traveling abroad and attending academic conferences. All travel-related costs are covered, as well as conference fees, accommodation and administrative costs. In addition, Short-Research Grants help students enhance their dissertations. Doctoral students are eligible to receive one such award during their second or third year of study. Master’s students may receive such grants organized by their departments.

4. Doctoral Research Support Grant

The Doctoral Research Support Grant Program (DRSG) is designed to help students enrolled in CEU doctoral programs wishing to spend time researching or studying at another recognized university, institute, or research center.

5. Praesidium Libertatis Scholarship at Leiden University

CEU degree students can participate in graduate degree programs at Leiden University, receiving a scholarship from Leiden University. The scholarship program is titled Leiden-CEU Praesidium Libertatis Scholarship.
