By ways of quantitative research methods the sources of income of students from 36 nationalities have been analysed to clarify where the money they bring to Groningen comes from. The different ways international students can finance their studies are: financing by parents or family, scholarships, working, savings or loaning. Most of the money originates from the parents or family of these students. Students who are in Groningen for an exchange receive less money from their parents or family than students who are completing a degree in Groningen. These exchange students get a part of their funding from the Erasmus programme. Students who have the opportunity to receive a scholarship will have a large part of their funding sorted out and those who do not need to seek other opportunities. date: 2019 date_type: published thesis_type: bachelor degree_programme: SGP tutors_name: Steen, P. van keywords_local: Credit mobility keywords_local: Degree mobility keywords_local: International students keywords_local: Income language_iso: en titleorder: Following the money of international students dbi: 5ca7232d89a70 imported_item: yes date_of_import: 2020-04-22 imported_from: http://scripties.frw.eldoc.ub.rug.nl/root/ba/SGP/2019/bdlodeweges/ import_source_file: theses-frw-20200422132455-5ca7232d89a70.xml date_issued: 2019-01-01 citation: Lodeweges, B.D.
