Financial Aid

Financial aid in the form of a reduced tuition fee may be awarded to students who demonstrate exceptional promise and financial need, particularly to those students from developing countries. Students are advised that there is no entitlement to financial aid in any case, nor can DAMU assure any or all applications for financial aid will be met. To apply for financial assistance after you have been accepted, please contact the PSTS director.

Students must make their own arrangements for accident and health insurance. DAMU cannot accept any liability for any student’s safety, health or welfare. Proof of insurance will be required with payment.
