The Holland-Zuyd Excellence Scholarship (H-ZES) is a funded program in the Netherlands.

The Holland-Zuyd Excellence Scholarship (H-ZES) in the Netherlands is currently accepting applications. For students wishing to pursue further education in the Netherlands, the Holland-Zuyd Excellence Scholarship (H-ZES) presents a special opportunity. Combining two scholarships into one, this one offers a larger first-year scholarship sum than the Zuyd Excellence Scholarship.


A € 5,000 Holland Scholarship will be awarded to H-ZES recipients for their first year of study. To balance their study, they will be qualified for the Zuyd Excellence Scholarship, which can offer a maximum net tuition discount of €3600.

Students must maintain a minimum of 45 credits every academic year to continue receiving the H-ZES, and their progress will be reviewed annually. The scholarship's renewal is contingent upon the program's stated term.

Applications for the H-ZES are examined individually and are contingent on supply and demand; applications are given priority based on their order of receipt. Interested students are therefore urged to apply as soon as possible to maximize their chances of being awarded this improved scholarship opportunity.
