The cantonal scholarship offices are generally responsible for scholarships and educational loans. Decisive factors for support include

• personal situation
• family circumstances
• financial requirements.

The application is normally submitted in the parents' canton of residence.

Important contact points:

• Scholarship offices of all cantons
• Graubünden Scholarships Office
• Scholarships for stays abroad
• Foreign government scholarships for Swiss students and researchers

Foreign students can contact the relevant public funding institutions in their country.

Private foundations and funds can provide students with financial support - for example for stays abroad or for certain subjects.

In some cases, it is also possible to apply for financial support from your local authority. It is best to enquire at the municipal office of your municipality of residence.

The number of foundations that also award scholarships is large and confusing. You can search for a suitable foundation using the Swiss Confederation's directory of foundations.
