Friends of BUas Fund

The Friends of BUas Fund supports students in special circumstances that fall outside the scope of regular financial provisions. From acute financial need to talent development – we help wherever possible.

About the Friends of BUas Fund

The Friends of BUas Fund is an independent foundation that offers financial support to BUas students facing special circumstances. The foundation supplements assistance where, for example, the Student Support Fund and other schemes fall short.

The Friends of BUas Fund board honours applications within the fund’s financial capabilities and the policy plan for that year.
