“...All members of the ALBA community (students, graduates, staff and faculty) are expected to demonstrate its norms of moral responsibility. Students in particular are expected to note and understand the ethical dimension of their actions. Fulfilling this mission is a collective responsibility of the ALBA community.

Scholarships and Financial Aid to Students
Appreciating knowledge as a public good, ALBA has decided to provide a set of scholarships and different financial aid programs to students, who have a high academic standing and a deprived financial background. Scholarship programs range from covering the full fees to covering a percentage of the fees. This combination of different types of scholarships and financial aid programs has been created in order to support different students with different needs.
Scholarships provided are of two types: scholarships provided and funded by ALBA and scholarships provided and funded by other organizations (companies and authorities).
