General scholarships

General scholarships 

The Ministry of Education and Training announces each academic year general scholarships to pursue official university undergraduate and/or master's degree studies. 

The Agency for the Management of University and Research Grants (AGAUR) manages these grants in Catalonia. 

Purpose

Facilitate access to university studies through tuition grants and other concepts, under the principle of equal opportunities.

Convening entity

The Ministry of Education and Vocational Training calls for applications. The AGAUR manages the call. 

Status of the call

The call for general scholarships for the 2025/2026 academic year is pending publication.

What benefits does the scholarship include?

To benefit from these scholarships, you must meet the requirements set out in the call: General, academic and economic requirements (income and assets).

The general scholarship consists of the sum of the different scholarships/amounts that can be awarded based on family income and assets and the academic requirements that are met.

The minimum aid is the tuition grant. From there, other amounts can be added, which are awarded directly. It is not necessary to specifically ask for which grants/amounts you want.

Who can apply

Students who are studying university courses in the Spanish university system, taken in Spanish centers and valid throughout the national territory, leading to official university bachelor's and master's degrees, and who meet the general, economic and academic requirements established in the call.

Scholarships for specialization studies or own qualifications are not included in this call.

Apply within the deadline, even if you don't know that you will study, or even if you don't know whether you will study or not. Put the studies that you consider most likely and modify them within the corresponding deadline, if necessary. 

When can you apply?

The call for applications for the 2025/2026 academic year, which will set the deadline for submitting applications for these scholarships, is pending publication. 

How to apply

The application must be submitted electronically through the electronic headquarters of the Ministry of Education and Vocational Training.

What documentation must be provided?

As a general rule, no documents are required to apply for the scholarship. Documents will only be required in very specific cases, which will be indicated on the scholarship application receipt once you have submitted it. However, at any time during the procedure, you may be required to provide supporting documents for the circumstances alleged in the application.

If the Ministry or the AGAUR, once the application has been processed, requires you to provide additional documentation, it will do so through the portal  gencat procedures of the Generalitat de Catalunya and you will also have to present it through this portal.

How will the scholarship be processed?

1. Apply for the scholarship within the deadline, using the Ministry's form.
2. The general requirements and family unit are checked.
3. Financial requirements are checked. 
4. You will be asked to review and modify your data (academic, banking and residence).
5. Academic requirements are checked and you are informed of the result of your scholarship.

Collection of the scholarship:

TecnoCampus students who apply for a general scholarship must pay the full amount of the registration fee. Scholarship recipients will receive the amount awarded by the Ministry in the bank account that the student has indicated in the scholarship application, once the Ministry has paid it to the University. In the event that the student has an outstanding payment with TecnoCampus, the scholarship will be partially or fully compensated with the outstanding amount.

For more information, contact the Student Information Point.

How to check the status of your scholarship

The processing of scholarship applications managed by AGAUR is carried out through the gencat Procedures portal, with the identifier code (ID code) associated with the request.

This ID code does not correspond to the locator that appears on the receipt of the requested scholarship, but will be provided to you by email, once the application deadline has ended.
