Information for scholarship holders

Scholarship agreement for foreign scholars coming to Hungary based on bilateral state agreements - General Conditions

Scholarship Presence Certificate Sample

Acceptance of the scholarship

Accepted applicants are requested to confirm their will to fulfil the received scholarship stay to the contact person at the host institution (or as requested by the host institution).

Postponement

The granted scholarship can only be used within the utilization period indicated in the call, so it cannot be postponed to the following academic year.

To modify the starting date within the utilization period can be arranged after receiving the consent of the host institution under the condition that the scholarship holder informs Tempus Public Foundation through its bilateral state scholarships officer (see Tempus Public Foundation’s contact persons according to the countries of origin here).

Resignation/cancellation

In case the applicant cannot or do not want to use the scholarship within the period approved by the decision of Tempus Public Foundation, a new application for the following academic year has to be submitted. The applicant is requested to inform his/her Tempus Public Foundation through its bilateral state scholarships officer by email, as well as the host institution, without delay (see Tempus Public Foundation’s contact persons according to the countries of origin here).

Vis maior

The scholarship holder is entitled to interrupt/finish the scholarship due to a vis maior situation occuring during his/her scholarship period. In this case, the scholarship holder has to inform his/her Tempus Public Foundation bilateral state scholarships officer by email, as well as the host institution, without delay (see Tempus Public Foundation’s contact persons according to the countries of origin here). 

In case of nomination, the national office responsible for scholarship grants needs to be informed, as well.

After being informed about the vis maior situation, TPF will fix the extent of the time-proportional reimbursement of the grant and will inform the scholarship holder accordingly.

Mobility Report

Scholarship-holders are required to submit an online professional report after completion of their scholarship period. The report must be submitted within 30 days after finishing their scholarship.
In case scholarship-holders fail to submit the report, they will be excluded from further scholarship opportunities. They will be required to pay back the scholarship, and their scholarship period will be immediately closed.
