Financial Aid 

A variety of international organizations offer scholarships for postgraduate studies, such as the OAS, the IADB, the Ford Foundation, and the Konrad Adenauer Foundation, among others.

In the past, the Konrad Adenauer Foundation has offered scholarships to outstanding applicants.  For more information, those interested should personally contact the local Foundation office. In the cases of the OAS, the IADB and the Ford Foundation, more information, including application requirements and deadlines, can be obtained on the organizations’ websites.

It is recommended that applicants inquire about financial support from their place of employment and from other private and public institutions that have provided support to students in the past.  Furthermore, it is recommended that applicants explore a variety of options for financing their education in order to ensure possibility of enrollment if accepted into the program.  

The ILADES/Georgetown University Master in Arts program also offers scholarships directly to qualified applicants.  The granting of these scholarships is based on previous academic performance and is contingent upon continued satisfactory performance in the program.

For Chilean students, CORFO is supporting an educational credit system administered by private banks. For public employees, Universidad Alberto Hurtado has recently signed an agreement with MIDEPLAN to grant Presidente de la República Scholarships.
