Deadlines for this scholarship
An award closing is only the first of the dates that matter. After it there is the deposit that keeps your place, the unconditional offer the funder wants to see before it pays, and a last day to arrive and register. Where the funder publishes none of these, the row says so — a blank is what the official page actually says, not something we have left out.
No closing date published. This funder sets its closing date per country, or opens the call only when the cycle begins. Send us your documents and we will apply the moment your country’s window opens.

Spanish foreign-ministry/AECID cooperation-fund scholarships for citizens of the African and Middle East countries listed in the call who are permanent civil servants or public employees (including education and university staff).

Official source: https://www.boe.es/boe/dias/2026/07/01/pdfs/BOE-B-2026-22411.pdf (checked 29 October 2026).Where these dates came from
AECID's Africa-Med Master 2026/2027 round (BOE extract BOE-B-2026-22411 of 29 June 2026, 30 master's grants, funded 1 September 2026 to 31 July 2027) closed after "10 días hábiles" from publication, i.e. applications ran 2 to 15 July 2026 - https://www.boe.es/diario_boe/txt.php?id=BOE-B-2026-22411 and https://www.exteriores.gob.es/Consulados/jerusalen/es/Comunicacion/Noticias/Paginas/Articulos/Convocatoria-de-Becas-MAEC-AECID.aspx (checked 30 October 2026); www.aecid.es itself would not open from here. All columns are blank because that closed round was for 2026 entry and no 2027/2028 call is published; the funder also requires master's admission before applying, but publishes no separate admission-holding date.
