Scholarships for Romani
Students of Law or Public Administration
The European Roma Rights Center offers scholarships to eligible Romani students
of law or public administration. Scholarships normally cover tuition at
accredited schools, books and fees, and miscellaneous expenses related to higher
education. In exceptional cases, the ERRC will also cover accommodation.
Criteria for selection include academic promise, financial need and a
demonstrated intention to work in the field of human rights. Recipients of
scholarships are required to submit a report at the end of each semester to the
ERRC indicating their academic progress. Scholarships are awarded for one year.
Successful recipients are not guaranteed scholarships for the following years of
study; they must re-apply to the ERRC. For more information about the ERRC
