Scholarships in Spain for Indian Students: What Is Real

Scholarships in Spain for Indian Students: Erasmus Mundus, University Awards and PhD Fellowships

Spain's government scholarships are not for Indians: MAEC-AECID targets Latin America and the Philippines, and Fundación Carolina targets Ibero-American countries. Real money for an Indian student comes from three places: Erasmus Mundus master's, discounts from universities and business schools, and doctoral fellowships.

Common questions: Scholarships in Spain

Are there fully funded scholarships in Spain for Indian students?

Yes, Erasmus Mundus scholarships for joint master's with Spanish partner universities cover tuition and a monthly allowance, and la Caixa INPhINIT funds PhDs. Both are competitive.

Can I get a scholarship for a public master's in Spain?

Rarely, because the fees are already low; some universities give small merit awards. Spanish government grants require residence.
