Pompeu Fabra University Barcelona School of Management Talent Scholarships

UPF Barcelona School of Management, through the UPF's Institute of Continuing Education Foundation, annually awards scholarships to finance master studies to students who can demonstrate their talent and motivation. The Talent Scholarships cover between 25% and 50% of the total tuition fee and up to 75% if you can demonstrate that you are in a difficult financial situation.

Which requirements do I need to fulfill?

  • Have completed a university qualification.
  • Have obtained in your undergraduate studies a minimum GPA (Grade Point Average) of 3.0 out of 4.0(the Scholarship Committee reserves the right to determine a different minimum GPA according to your home country's grading system).
  • Have been accepted to the master program for which you are applying for the scholarship.
  • Have paid the 25% of the tuition fee necessary to reserve your place on the program in the period indicated in your admission letter.

Please note that your application must meet all documentation requirements and deadlines. Otherwise it will not be evaluated.

How do I apply?

Apply through eRegistrar (option "Scholarship and Grants"). Please note that this option will only be displayed once you have paid your master's reservation fee. Remember to provide the following documentation:

  • A letter of motivation (including your reasons for applying for a Talent Scholarship)
  • At least 2 letters of academic and/or professional recommendation
  • A complete transcript of records of your undergraduate studies with your GPA
  • If presenting a non-Spanish transcript of records, a conversion chart or a scale corresponding to the educational system of the country in which the degree was issued

All documents except for the academic transcript must be in either Catalan, Spanish or English. The academic transcript can be presented in Catalan, Spanish, English, French, Italian or Portuguese. If it is another language it must be accompanied by a sworn official translation to Catalan or Spanish. If you wish to apply for an extended scholarship due to your economic situation you must expressly request this and provide additional documentation. In some cases candidates will be called for interview, either in person or by telephone or Skype. If necessary, we will contact you in order to schedule an interview. Talent Scholarships are not compatible with the UPF Alumni's discounts, nor with the UPF Barcelona School of Management Alumni Premium discounts.

When do I apply?

Talent Scholarships are applied for and awarded according to the dates outlined below. The funds available for each convocation diminish as the dates advance. Therefore, the earlier you apply for a Talent Scholarship, the more likely you are to be awarded one.
