The scholarships for International students aim to facilitate their access to the education offered by the University of Évora through the granting of a financial incentive, under the terms of art. 22 of the Academic Regulation.

The value of the incentive will be set by Rector's Office and will be, at most, equal to the difference between the international student's tuition fee and the tuition fee foreseen for national students. The value of the tuition fee to be paid by the incentive beneficiary will correspond to the amount of the tuition fee due after subtracting the value of the incentive.
