Overview
FUNIBER's second 2026 cohort offers partial scholarships for eligible Ecuadorian citizens and foreign residents in Ecuador pursuing official distance master's programs.
Complete scholarship details
The current Ecuador SIAU call is for fourth-level official master's study in distance mode. FUNIBER assesses admission and scholarship eligibility after receiving the requested documents. For selected applicants, the award letter specifies the scholarship percentage, remaining costs and proposed payment plan. The official landing page therefore supports a partial scholarship but not one fixed percentage for every applicant.
Eligibility requirements
Applicants must be Ecuadorian citizens or foreign residents in Ecuador, hold a qualifying third-level university degree rather than only a technical or technological credential, meet the selected program's admission requirements and have the capacity to cover costs not included in the scholarship.
Tips for this scholarship
Practical Job and Scholarship guidance. These tips do not replace official rules or create new eligibility requirements.
- Check eligibility, funding coverage, study/project level and every required document before investing time in the application.
- Prepare transcripts, references, language tests, proposal/motivation statement and proof documents early.
- Separate the scholarship deadline from any university/program admission deadline; they may be different.
- Treat “fully funded” as a source fact only when the official provider explicitly confirms the covered costs.
Verification notes
Verified 29 August 2026 from the official Ecuador SIAU second-cohort call. The source explicitly says the award letter will state the committed scholarship percentage, so no blanket percentage was invented.
Job and Scholarship is the discovery and verification layer. Confirm eligibility, dates, salary/funding and application instructions on the original source before submitting anything.
