Financial Aid: Applications accepted until 31-May-2015

Some financial aid is available for students from students from former communist countries in Eastern Europe. The number of reductions is limited, so please only apply if necessary, as we probably cannot give it to everyone who asks for it. 

If this reduced fee would still make it really impossible to come to the school, send us a short letter explaining your case to Hedde Zeijlstra at zeijlstra at yahoo.com explaining your situation.
