DSF Merit Scholarships

When you apply to study at DSF, your application is evaluated by the Admissions Board for admission, but it is also simultaneously evaluated for a merit-based DSF tuition fee waiver. Being a private institute (company sponsored) allows us to provide 100% financial aid to all successful candidates.

Each student’s tuition fees will differ based on the merit of his/her admissions application.

The average scholarship/tuition fee waiver awarded for the DSF Class of 2011 was 40%.

Our teaching methodology is career focused hence selection is rigorous and heavily based on your potential for employment after graduation. As in the admissions evaluation, your prior educational results, test scores, knowledge, skills, attitude and ambition, are considered in the evaluation for a DSF tuition fee waiver.  You do not have to apply for this tuition fee waiver separately.

Several DSF Scholarships are available and the amounts will vary from candidate to candidate, based on your evaluation results. Awarded scholarships are granted in the form of a tuition fee waiver. These scholarships can only be applied to the year of study in which the scholarship is awarded.

If you are selected for such a DSF merit scholarship, you will be asked to perform student assistant tasks (tallying a maximum 20 days). Student assistant projects will be posted throughout the year on our e-learning platform. You may apply for the project that appeals to you most.

Please note that, regardless of whether you are awarded a scholarship, if you wish to study at DSF, you must pay a €2,000 deposit by the time of registration to reserve your seat in the programme.
