'TuitionBridge' and 'Augendo': new financial aid tools

 

Brussels, 6 January 2006

 

TuitionBridge and Augendo are the new instruments for financial aid offered to a number of program-participants at the Thierry Graduate School. Augendo, a Latin-word meaning "for the purpose of growing", encapsulates the financial aid and grants system for program-participants in low and middle-income countries. It also integrates the funding that had previously been created for the emerging leaders in the South East Asia disaster areas, and in certain parts of Africa and the Middle East. Augendo is an integral part of TuitionBridge. TuitionBridge is the new name of  the Graduate School's financial aid system. Its mode of financing is identical to the  preceding years :  all of the program-participants of the Graduate School contribute to it, a fraction of each person's tuition fees being allocated to the funding. This mode of self-sustained financing, combined with some benevolent work undertaken by our faculty-members, supports our Graduate School's concept of solidarity, and esprit de corps - the common spirit existing in the members of a group; inspiring enthusiasm or service; and strong regard for the honour of the group.  In view of the fact that there is an ever-increasing flow of qualifying individuals in low and middle-income countries who request admission into our online-based programs, the Graduate School will, in the very near future, undertake the necessary steps for obtaining supplemental Augendo-funding by external bona fide sponsors.
