GwMEF fellows are granted an 80% reduction in the tuition fee, and are also entitled to one of our Teaching Assistantship (TAship) or Research Assistantship (RAship) positions with a monthly stipend of 800 euros for the entire academic year.
MEF applicants will be considered for the GwMEF scholarship only if they meet all the following criteria:
Hold a BA in Engineering, Mathematics or Physics with GPA over 8.5/10 (or equivalent), or a BA in Economics, Finance or Business with GPA over 8.5/10 (or equivalent). In the latter case, candidates will be considered only if they took undergraduate courses on Calculus, Algebra, Statistics, and Econometrics, and got a high grade (above 85%) in most of these courses, or, alternatively, if they are above the 85 percentiles in the quantitative part of the GRE.
Provide two outstanding letters of recommendations, preferably signed by professors of one of the relevant areas above (mathematics, economics, physics, or statistics).
Proof of completion of (at least) three-year undergraduate studies conducted entirely in English, including all teaching, assessments, and examinations. Alternatively, the candidate must have a C1 Advanced (Cambridge) or above 104 points in the TOEFL exam (or equivalent).
Provide a strong motivating letter on the intrinsic and extrinsic motivations of the candidate (a) to study the MEF at UNAV and (b) to become a GwMEF fellow.
The MEF Board will consider all the MEF applicants that satisfy all the criteria above as GwMEF potential candidates and will grant a maximum of 5 scholarships per academic year. The decisions on the allocation of the GwMEF among applications that satisfy all the criteria above are irrevocable.
Calendar: The GwMEF fellows will be decided among all MEF applications in two rounds.
The first round in December 2023 (early-bird); and a second evaluation in April 2024.
