Scholarships, grants and fees

The IED in Spain organises annually, a scholarship competition that is aimed at all people of any nationality wanting to develop their professional career in the areas of Design, Fashion, Visual Communication or Management and Design Strategies.

A scholarship is offered for each course: Bachelor’s Degree in Higher Artistic Education in Design, BA (Hons), IED Diploma, Certificate of Higher Education, Master’s and Postgraduate Degree.

The recipients benefit from a scholarship worth up to 50% of the course fee.

The IED offers candidates a number of grants to facilitate access to design education. Candidates wanting to study at the IED will therefore be able to benefit from discounts in the following cases:

  • Early Payment
  • Large Family
  • Single-parent Family
  • Disability
  • Relatives of students and alumni
  • IED alumni

Application deadline: during the time period corresponding to the completion of enrolment. Your Academic Advisor will inform you of all the documentation you need to provide.

Income brackets apply for Bachelor Degrees in Higher Artistic Education in Design, Diplomas, BA (Hons) Westminster and Certificates of Higher Education.

The income bracket is a special rate for family incomes whose general taxable base is less than €35,000 (bracket 1) or between €35,001 and €45,000 (bracket 2). In the case of Certificates of Higher Education, a single bracket is offered for incomes below €45,000. The income bracket is a fixed amount and not a percentage reduction of the course fee amount.

It will be offered to all first-year students. Beneficiaries will be able to maintain the conditions throughout their course provided they present documentation accrediting their status. This grant is currently only available for Spanish students.
