Important Tips on Applying for Swiss Government Scholarships

Acceptance Letter: First, of all, applicants need the Supervision Letter/Acceptance Letter from a Swiss Professor.

Tips For Contacting Professor: From the experience of the past years, we have noticed that most of the time, professors have already accepted another student from another country, because you are late in emailing him and impressing them OR You have no need to spend time understanding the professor’s profile and linking his profile to your work.

If you start contacting the professor in Switzerland at least a week later and then email him, you can easily get the answer from the professor in Switzerland.

How to Write Emails to Professor?

Please carefully See the given links.

English IELTS / TOEFL scores, etc. are mandatory, but email Swiss authorities or Swiss universities to ask if they are waiving them because of COVID).
