There is a countless number of summer school programs that vary in duration and course fees. Sign up directly with the organizer. And there are grants and scholarships available to help you out financially. So, what are you waiting for?
There are some summer school programs that give JKU students an advantage, meaning you pay little to no course fees.
The registration formalities are a little different and partial student selection for the program takes place at the JKU.
Discount Summer School Programs with an Application at the JKU 2021
The online application until February 15, 2021 and selection procedure takes place at the JKU. Then you can contact the host university.
The JKU Study Abroad Scholarship
The scholarship is a subsidy to help cover the course fees and is a max. of € 250 in Europe and a max. of € 500 outside of Europe.
Apply online BEFORE taking part in the program and submit the following:
Please note: Any approved scholarship will only be paid out after at least 1 ECTS credit per course week has been transferred. We strongly recommend applying for a pre-approval application before the summer school program starts.
You Receive a Study Grant ("Studienbeihilfe")
If you attend a month-long language course abroad, you can submit an application to the Study Grant Authority in Linz to receive your study abroad grant. The pre-requisite is getting a minimum of 3 ECTS credits transferred.
If the course is less than one month, you can apply for study allowance ("Studienunterstützung") (PDF, German only). This is usually approved based on the study abroad grant.
You Are Officially Registered as a Resident of Upper Austria
If Upper Austria has been your official main residence for at least 1 year and you still need financial aid to help fund an immersion language course abroad, you can also apply for a scholarship from the state of Upper Austria as part of the IPS (Internationalization Program for Students). The amount is a max. of € 100 per month (the course must be at least 10 days long). In addition, you could receive a travel allowance for up to max. € 240 in Europe and a max. of € 480 outside of Europe.
You can apply by submitting the form "Other Stays Abroad: Scholarship Application" in the online application portal BEFORE your stay abroad begins.
Don't Forget to Transfer Your Credits!
If you are studying Business or Law, submit your application online. If you are enrolled in Engineering, Natural Sciences, or Medicine, submit your application to the Department of Examinations and Recognition Services.
