Refusal of scholarship application

Has your application for a DAE scholarship been rejected? The University is automatically notified of the refusal of your scholarship application and the full rate (€835) is automatically applied to your enrolment.

If you lodge an appeal against the DAE's decision, please note that you are still liable to pay your registration fees to the University. The payment deadline must be respected.

Please also note that there will be a delay of a few days between receiving the notification letter and the update of your study allowance decision in your ULiège registration file. Once you receive the email from the Student Social Services informing you of the change in rate, you can begin the necessary procedures.
