Scholarship Description: The grant is EUR 800 per month. In addition, the Humboldt Foundation pays a single lump-sum of EUR 250 on arrival as well as a single lump-sum for travel expenses to fellows travel-ling directly from Spain. Initially, application can be made for a fellowship lasting 2 academic semesters (10 months). Applications can be filed for a single extension of one or two further academic semesters. Generally, fellowship extensions will be granted only if an academic degree is completed during the period of extension applied for. If a Wardwell Fellowship has been granted for 10 months, fellows may spend periods up to 5 months during the sponsor-ship to carry out advanced studies in another European country (except for Spain), if this is essential for carrying out their studies.
