92,000 euro scholarship at Luiss for a degree in Economics & Business

Luiss Guido Carli, thanks to the contribution provided by Renaissance Partners and Aurora Growth Capital, through Renaissance AIFM, jointly with 5 companies in which Aurora has a stake (Farmo, Eurmoda, Promo-Pharma, Finlogic, Club del Sole), announces a competition for the award of a scholarship to cover the full cost of enrolment, registration and maintenance of studies for the entire three-year degree course in Economics and Business, delivered in English.

The scholarship is intended for a female student resident in Abruzzo, Basilicata, Calabria, Campania, Molise, Apulia, Sardinia or Sicily, in conditions of socio-economic disadvantage proven by ISEEU, who will enrol in the 2026/2027 academic year in the first year of the three-year degree course in Economics and Business at Luiss Guido Carli.

The initiative provides overall economic support of over 92,000 euros over the three years of study. In particular, the grant includes total exemption from paying the single university fee for the entire duration of the course, full coverage of accommodation costs at a Luiss residence for ten months of the year, food at university canteens, an annual contribution towards the purchase of books and teaching materials, and exemption from the graduation fee.

"With this initiative," emphasised Patrizia Micucci, Founder and Managing Partner of Aurora Growth Capital, "we want to give concrete support to a talented young student, offering her the possibility of accessing a university course of excellence regardless of her economic starting point. "We have enthusiastically promoted this initiative," added Giacinto d'Onofrio, Managing Partner of Aurora Growth Capital, "to give a concrete signal for those who deserve it. I too grew up in the south of Italy and I know how much more difficult it is to access prestigious training courses for students coming from the target regions; the initiative we are promoting will make a tangible contribution in this direction".

Candidates will be assessed through a ranking based on their financial situation, admission test results, CV and individual interview with Renaissance AIFM contact persons. The first five candidates in the ranking list will be admitted to the interview, in addition to any ex aequo. Confirmation of the scholarship in the following years will be subject to the maintenance of high academic standards, with the achievement by the summer session of each academic year of at least 70% of the credits envisaged in the study plan and a weighted average of 27/30 or higher. Applications can be submitted until 12 noon on 29 May 2026.
