Education in Sweden or Norway / France/Netherlands?

Question

I am a 22 year old female and in search of the Higher Education institution abroad for undergraduate studies to study tourism management or something related, mainly in those countries I have listed in the subject areas. My major problem is that I do not have enough funds to support myself financially and trying to find an institution that will be able to provide me with a full-cost scholarship. I know it would be difficult, but can anyone suggest something? Your help is appreciated,

Answer 1

Most public universities in Europe are very affordable regardless of your nationality. However, you will need to pay some fees like every other student and have sufficient funds for room and board and personal expenses. I will assume that you are already fluent in any of these languages. You should probably make a list of potential universities and contact them asking if they have any scholarship or fellowship programs for international students - unless you are a EU citizen, in which case, things should be a lot easier. Another alternative are private scholarships from foundations such as Fulbright. For a directory of scholarships, visit this page: http://www.macquil.com/scholarships.php

Answer 2

Maybe you can find information about scholarships in Sweden at www.studyinsweden.se . There is a link to "Scholarships" in the navigation bar. Tuition is free in Sweden, so it is for the cost of living that you will need a scholarship.

University of Gothenburg offers a program in Tourism and Hospitality Management, http://utbkat.gu.se/utbildning/utb/PSITOM.html .
Högskolan Dalarna (a much smaller university) participates in a program called European Tourism Management, see http://www.du.se/templates/ProgrammePage.aspx?id=231&programkod=ETMPP&language=en
Stage 1 is taught in English in among others Sweden and the Netherlands.
Karlstad University is strong in Tourism studies. See http://www.kau.se/education/kurser_amne.lasso?id=AM1053. But I don't know if the courses are in Swedish only, or in English too.
University of Lund - a large university - gives some courses in tourism management, and so does Mittuniversitetet.

Answer 3

Try to find something out about the Erasmus Institute. It has a universities all over the world and does offer scholarships. My friend from Italy studied in Spain in that way

You realise you would have to speak Swedish, fluently. I expect the same applies to the other countries you have listed.
