Decisions and payment

The processing time varies between foundations. Decisions are always sent to successful applicants, and sometimes to all applicants.

Disbursement of scholarships and grants awarded to university staff are made to the relevant department. If you are not an employee of Lund University, disbursement can be made to a private bank account. In order to receive disbursement of the grant, you must use the requisition form that accompanies an approved application in the application system.

If your trip is cancelled and you will not be able to use your grant, please inform the Endowment Administration, stipendier [at] eken [dot] lu [dot] se (stipendier[at]eken[dot]lu[dot]se)

Reporting and repayment

A report must always be submitted after the completion of a trip or project. The reporting form can be found in the application system alongside an approved application. Submit your report promptly after you have used the grant.

If the entire scholarship or grant is not used, the remaining funding must be repaid to the foundation. Ask the finance officer at your department to contact Endowment Administration.

It is not possible to request redistribution of the funding for a different purpose or an extension of the grant period. Instead you are welcome to apply for a new grant in the next application round.

If your trip is moved to a later date, you can still use your grant, provided that it is within the specified period in the decision.
