Student grants
Grants/scholarships are available to full-time students in all study cycles. They are distributed by higher
education institutions based on their specific eligibility criteria. One type of grant must contain two indicators:
academic performance and monthly income per family member of the student for the previous six months. From
2016, universities must also award merit-based grants – based only on academic performance. Grant amounts
range from BGN 50 to 120/month, and in most cases are issued during 10 months. Starting from the second
semester of the 2016/17 academic year, grant amounts shall range from BGN 70 to 150 per month. There is no
support for part-time students.
