Needs-based scholarships
Grants from ETH Zurich are always intended to provide subsidiary funding. In other words, they are designed to supplement other financial resources, and in particular other grants from the student’s canton of residence or country of origin. ETH Zurich grants do not completely cover the costs of studies and living. Swiss students and students who have taken up residence in Switzerland are entitled to grants covering up to 65% of these costs, while foreign students may receive a contribution of up to 45%.
