Thanks To Scandinavia Grants

Thanks To Scandinavia (TTS) was established by Danish entertainer Victor Borge and American lawyer Richard Netter in 1963 as a thank you to the Scandinavian countries for their help in aiding Jews during World War II. TTS awards scholarships to students and researchers from Scandinavia and Bulgaria for studies in the US. Each year, three scholarships are awarded to Danish graduate students, including two scholarships for Master's degrees and one Victor Borge Music Scholarship. The scholarships must be used on tuition or tuition-related expenses such as books and university-related fees. Fulbright Denmark nominates candidates who have applied for the Core Fulbright Student Grant. Application decisions are made in May/June, and scholarships are awarded in the U.S. after arrival. The program prefers MA students pursuing full degrees in the United States.
