All scholarships are based on the student's performance and potential or sometimes on request/recommendation by a teacher. Financial need is not a factor in determining the recipients of these awards. A complete list of awarded dancers and students is not available, some scholarships are granted without publishing the name of the receiver. • (NL) Het toekennen van een beurs gebeurd nooit op basis van financiële behoefte. Een beurs wordt toegekend aan studenten met talent, doorzettingsvermogen en bijzondere liefde voor dans of soms via een verzoek/aanbeveling van een docent. Bij het toekennen van een beurs wordt niet altijd de naam van de ontvanger gepubliceerd, de onderstaande lijst is om die reden niet volledig. • Student by Invitation is initiated by: Balletschool Mabel Alter & Summerschool Den Haag More information...
