Applications are now open for the Merit Scholarships for students enrolled in the 1st year for the first time, as part of the UCP4SUCCESS initiative.
The aim of this initiative is to recognise and reward the effort and academic progress of students enrolled in the 1st year, for the first time, through the general access regime, in Bachelor's and Integrated Master's degree courses at the Universidade Católica Portuguesa, who have earned at least 30 ECTS in the curricular units of the semester in question and who have not taken any appeal or improvement exams.
The scholarships will be awarded on the basis of two criteria: academic merit, assessed by the difference between the student's Higher Education application grade and the final average of the semester in which the student is applying (70%), and the student's socio-economic condition (30%).
Applications for the UCP4SUCCESS Scholarships take place in two separate periods: the first, relating to the results achieved in the 1st semester, is open until 16 June 2025; the second, relating to the 2nd semester, runs from 17 June to 31 July 2025.
To apply, students must complete the online form available below:
