Grant allocation
The Deusto Grant consists of a percentage reduction on the amount of tuition fees (monthly fees) for new enrolment credits. The percentage granted can range from 20% to 40% of the above-mentioned amount. In contrast, the grant does not apply to the initial tuition fee or to any recognition fees, if applicable.
The type of grant awarded depends on the student's family financial situationand the total number of eligible applicationsreceived each academic year, until the budget is exhausted. For this reason, it is possible to receive a different deduction in a new academic year, even if the family's financial situation and the student's academic performance have not changed.
To determine whether you meet the criteria for a grant, we have this Deusto Grant Simulator available to calculate those values.
