Kindly check university requirement for that. Every university has separate band requirement for IELTS
Hi. Thank you for sharing this. you have written in the above that we can apply for MS but in their official site it is mentioned that there is written that no scholarships for bachelors and masters, isnt it?
On their official website there are three programs available. One for post doc second for PhD and third one for Researches and in this program people having only bachelor degree can apply.
no scholarships available for masters for students from pakistan ? because it says no masters scholarships available when i opt pakistan in the given space. kindly let me know
It has research program and for that students having Bachelor degrees can also apply but having nice and clear research directions. You can see in their site that three programs are available. First one is for Postdoc second for PhD and third one is for Research work and in this program eligibility requirements only bachelor degree is required. 🙂 😉
So does the research programme means Master Programme ?
Master and research are same things or different ?
They are different programs. Research base program also require only BS Degree.
Hello, its very good effort… i just want to confirm… that if we apply and provide ielts certifcate latter… is it possible??? Either uni will accept application without ielts/tofel?
IELTS is essential requirement so you need that….
Second thing which make me confuse that documents first submittef to embasy, while documents along acceptance will be submitted later????
There are two parallel processes, first one is to submit documents for admission in university and second one is to submit docs to embassy for scholarship grant along with acceptance in both sets.
this is scholarship really and already opens from august 2016 or maybe ? and also about date for winners results and travel to Switzerland?

when i was checking for earth science in which i was searching for petroleum and i saw the team but at that time time i did not forward my mail to professor but now i m trying to do but i cant see the team for that i mean professor. someone can tell me why its like this?
Check using some other device or contact ISO or admission department of that university to provide you with emails of professors.
Dear Waqas this right or wrong to email and seek acceptance letter from 4 professors at the same department ? if this is wrong what can i do?
This is right method. But be careful not to send emails in bulk. And be specific about their research directions. In first email do not send any attachments, if professors asks for anything then send that thing only in next email 😉
can we apply in more than one course in same university or in different university??
Yes, you can apply for multiple Swiss universities and multiple programs.
Is this scholarship only applicable for MS (masters in sciences) and not MA (masters in arts) like social sciences and humanities if i am applying for a masters degree?
Its for both MS or MA or Master, you must have some research direction because these are research based programs not degree based.

Dear Waqas Muhammad,
I’m interested in applying for this Scholarship so I have several questions:
1. In the guide it is stated that we should apply simultaneously for both the Master Degree and the Scholarship. I have already been accepted for a Master Degree at ETH Zurich. Does that mean that I am not able to apply for the scholarship?
2. My Master Degree program starts on the 20-th of September 2016. And as I read in the comments this scholarship application is for the 2017 session. Am I allowed to apply for scholarship now and get the scholarship for my second semester starting February 2017?
3. I finished my undergrad studies but due to my university policies I wont be able to get the actual Diploma until next year. The reason for that is that they organize a special ceremony where all diplomas are awarded to students who finished in the previous year. That being said will an official certificate from my university, with a list of subjects and grades, stating that I have finished my studies be enough for the application process?
4. I am a student from Macedonia and in Macedonia there is no Swiss Embassy. We apply for VISA in the Regional Consular for West Balkan in Prishtina, Kosovo. Nonetheless starting 1st of September I will be in Zurich and as you stated previously in the comments the application deadline is due to 30th of September. Am I allowed to apply for this scholarship while I am in Zurich? And if yes please tell me what is the procedure.
5. What happens if I get a mentorship from one professor and I decide that I want to change him for a different professor. Will I lose the scholarship?
Looking forward to hearing from you!
Kindest regards,
Jovan Andonov
