For many HfMT students, a stay at the Palazzo Ricci in Montepulciano is one of the highlights of their entire studies. In order to make this stay possible for students who, for financial reasons, are demonstrably unable to raise the necessary personal contribution in full, the Association of Friends and Sponsors of the Cologne University of Music and Dance has made a sum available to support students at the Cologne location. Under certain conditions, students can receive a grant from these limited funds. Please note: It is not possible to cover the full amount of the student's own contribution.
