Introduction to the Cattolica Africa Scholarship Program
Applications are now open for the Cattolica Africa Scholarship Program 2024/2026. The Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore (UCSC) in Italy is providing an excellent opportunity for African students who wish to pursue their master’s degree in selected programs for the academic year 2024/2026.
The Cattolica Africa Scholarship program is open to candidates who are citizens of African countries, hold a bachelor’s degree, possess outstanding academic records, and demonstrate high levels of motivation and commitment to their studies. This scholarship aims to offer financial support to deserving candidates and enable them to achieve academic excellence in their chosen field of study.
