Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore Masters Scholarship for Africans 2025. – SCHOLARSHIPS AND AID

Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore, as part of its mission to foster relationships with developing countries, offers a special programme to meritable students from the African continent. This programme enables eligible candidates to study an English-taught 2-year graduate degree / Laurea Magistrale with a tuition and university fees reduction. 

Benefits

The tuition and university fees (after reduction) are as follows:

1. Published Tuition: €9,050
2. Tuition fee reduction: €5,870 per year
3. Tuition to be paid: €3,480 per year

However, students will still be responsible for their own living expenses, hence the Università Cattolica Africa Scholars Programme is NOT a programme through which full scholarships can be obtained.
