VIVES University of Applied Sciences does not offer its own scholarships to international students. However, students can explore external funding opportunities to support their studies at VIVES. One such option is the GlobalScholarships.com $1,000 Scholarship for International Students, which is available to incoming international students at VIVES. This scholarship provides $1,000 to assist with study-related costs such as tuition fees and books. Eligibility criteria include being an international student enrolled in a postsecondary degree program in Fall 2024. 

Additionally, VIVES recommends the blocked bank account procedure for demonstrating sufficient means of subsistence, which is a requirement for obtaining a student visa. This involves depositing a sum covering living expenses into a frozen account managed by the institution. For more details on this procedure, you can refer to VIVES's application guidelines. 

It's also advisable to explore other external scholarships and funding options available to international students planning to study in Belgium. Resources like Study in Flanders provide practical information on applying to Flemish higher education institutions and may offer insights into additional funding opportunities.
