Many foundations and some state universities offer merit scholarships to those who have outstanding academic records. Scholarships are granted for the program the student is enrolled in and is continued throughout the regular period of the student’s education.

The normal duration of the scholarship is 5 years for those who must join a language preparatory program and four years for those who start directly as a freshman. For these, students are not at risk of losing their scholarships despite academic difficulties as long as they stick to mandatory class attendance rates. 

Independent of the merit-based scholarship quota, universities provide additional sources of funding. Almost all universities give partial scholarships, which depend on the academic merits of the applicant and cover between 30% and 95% of the total fees.
