Principal Scholarships Available for Self-funded International Students

Scholarships are not generally offered to students enrolled in the first year of an undergraduate, master's degree, or doctoral degree program, since they do not yet have a record of academic performance at TAU. Most scholarships take the form of grants (i.e., they do not need to be reimbursed upon graduation) and are conditional upon outstanding academic performance.

Scholarships Offered by Tama Art University

The University has enhanced its scholarship programs for the 2007-08 academic year.
