Ukraine's Minister of Digital Transformation Mykhailo Fedorov has announced that some Ukrainian students will be able to receive grants to pay for university education. Learn more about the details of the new pilot project
Students who have received average and high scores on the NMT exam will be able to apply for grants to pay for contractual education at a university, Mikhail Fedorov said.
Such grants will be issued as part of a new pilot project based on the principle “Money Follows the Student.” This year, such a program will be held for the first time, and applicants will be able to receive funds to pay for a university contract starting at UAH 15,000. Funds will be credited through the Diia platform.
In our previous article, we told you that the Irish government announced the abolition of tuition fees for students from Ukraine.
Details of the new grant for higher education
Students who have received more than 150 points for the NTM exam in at least 2 subjects will be able to apply for grants, and the amount of the grant will be 15 thousand hryvnias. Students with more than 170 points in at least 2 subjects will be able to receive a grant of UAH 25 thousand. Funds will be credited through the Diia app.
To apply for a grant, you need to follow the following algorithm:
1. A message about the possibility of applying for a grant will appear in the applicant's account;
2. After that, you need to choose a university and an educational program for admission;
3. The application for a grant must be submitted through the account in the Unified State Electronic Database on Education;
4. After receiving a notification of grant approval, you need to leave an application on the Diia portal;
5. Funds for tuition fees will be transferred to a special account annually throughout the entire period of study.

When choosing a specialty, most applicants were forced to focus on the number of budget places, forgetting about their own dreams. Not every family has the financial means to pay for education. The new grant will provide children with freedom of choice.
And for universities, it is another incentive to compete, because the more applicants, the bigger the budget of the educational institution. This approach has long been used in the United States and other countries with a high level of education. Mykhailo Fedorov hopes that this pilot project will be an incentive to improve learning conditions and create additional value for applicants.
We remind you! Starting September 2024, Lithuania will no longer cover the tuition fees for students from Ukraine. Read more about the new decision of the Lithuanian government.
