serious documented efforts, they have not been able to obtain any   
financial support, in particular due to economic difficulties in their   
respective country, a tuition-waver grant, awarded by the Institute   
Vienna Circle and the University of Vienna, will be provided.  
  
   
  
Applications should be sent to Professor Friedrich Stadler, c/o
