Support the university and students

The companies offering the scholarships decide who will receive their scholarship.  

We send the companies the list of candidates and the corresponding documents at least a week after the application period ends, and we eagerly await the committees' responses.  

Each committee has its own approach to making a decision, and you should also be prepared for the possibility that the company may contact you directly for further discussion. Some companies conduct interviews over the phone, while others might invite you to visit their office.  

The list of selected candidates will be published on the Development Fund’s website approximately one month after the application period ends.

The required documents are determined by the scholarship provider. Usually, these include a motivation letter, a CV, and an academic transcript from the dean’s office. However, it is often necessary to submit an essay on a given topic and a recommendation letter as well.  

Be sure to carefully read the scholarship guidelines to ensure you know exactly which documents need to be submitted!

Since your motivation and recommendation letters will be read by the scholarship sponsors, you should address the letters specifically to the representative of the company offering your chosen scholarship.

You can request an academic transcript from your school’s dean’s office. The easiest way to do this is via email, and the contact information can be found on the TalTech website.  

Don’t leave this to the last minute, as the dean’s office is only open during regular working hours.

Each candidate can submit up to three applications for scholarships.  

If a student is selected as the recipient of more than one scholarship, the decision will be returned to the student. A single student can receive only one scholarship in the main competition. The scholarship that is declined by the student will, in agreement with the company, be awarded to the next eligible student.
