Student grants
Each canton has its own regulations for the provision of grants and loans to students with residence in
Switzerland (decentralised system). In all cantons, the amount granted depends on the financial situation of the
applicant and his/her family.
In principle, support in the form of grants or loans or a combination of both is provided, but the majority of
beneficiaries only receive grants. [2011: 10.4 % grants only, 1.6 % loans only, 1.1 % grants and loans]
Some higher education institutions have their own funds for supplementary support of students. Students can only
apply if they already have applied for cantonal grants/loans.
