United Scholarship of the Trade Society for Kongens Lyngby

You will receive a one-off grant, usually amounting to between 10,000 and 15,000 DKK (about 1,340 to 2,010 EUR, averaging around 1,680 EUR), which is paid out in June. Several grants are awarded in each round. The exact amount depends on how many suitable applicants apply in the year in question. The fund is managed by the board of the Trade Association for Kongens Lyngby and the Surrounding Area (Handelsforeningen for Kongens Lyngby og Omegn). It supports young people who are preparing for a career in Danish trade and business. You can use the grant, for example, to fund a self-funded course or to study abroad.
