The College of Communication aims to attract the world’s brightest students to its international classrooms. Outstanding students from outside the European Economic Area can apply for an Amsterdam Merit Scholarship (AMS). The AMS is a scholarship that covers the tuition fee for the nominal duration of the programme.

You have to be accepted to our Bachelor's programme to be eligible for the AMS. Therefore we advise you to apply for the AMS and programme simultaneously.
