Uppsala University offers a scholarship opportunity especially for current fee-paying students. The scholarships will partially cover the tuition fee. About the tuition fee scholarships.
Riding grants
The riding grants consist of one semester of free riding lessons twice a week at the Akademistallet in Uppsala.
Each semester, ten scholarships are announced—two of which are awarded to beginners and eight to experienced riders. The scholarship is announced at the beginning of each semester, and the selection is based on both academic and equestrian qualifications.

Most scholarships are available through the Scholarships Office. There are also a number of scholarships managed by other institutions within the University or by external institutions, having other application dates and procedures. About external scholarships.
