Subject: Call for KAS Sur-place Scholarship 2023
Dear All,
The KAS sur-place scholarship is a local scholarship offered by the KAS Office Ethiopia/AU in the form of financial support to Ethiopians who are enrolled in and are pursuing post-graduate studies in universities in Ethiopia and who show excellence in their academic performance and in society. The phrase “sur-place” is French and means “on-site” and the scholarship is named as such to signify that it is a scholarship offered to students on site where they are studying, in this case, Ethiopia. Find out more information below. They especially encourage women and persons with disabilities to apply. The scholarship is offered once a year. The application phase for the new scholarship year usually starts in September.
The KAS sur-place scholarships in Ethiopia support young people who demonstrate excellence in their academic studies and in society. To be a successful recipient of the “monthly academic scholarship”, applicants must have a GPA of 3.5 or higher in their Bachelor’s degree (in every year of the Bachelor's!). Students applying for the “training grant” must have a GPA of 3.5 or higher in their Master’s/ or (if applicable) summa cm laude in their Ph.D. In general, it is a very competitive program. On top of that, they seek students who not only excel in their studies but who are highly involved in civic engagement as they fundamentally believe that countries can only grow if everyone contributes to the community.
