6. Selection of the winning applications

A committee made up of the delegates of the Directorate of International Relations and the faculties rank the applications by 15 March 2024 the latest. The University aims to provide the most talented students with the opportunity to study abroad, so academic achievement, academic, professional and community activities, and language skills are determining factors in the selection of the winners.

The applicants are notified about the results via email by the Mobility Office.

7. Appeal

If the student does not agree with the preliminary scores (calculated differently, does not understand why), they can submit a written appeal to the International Relations Directorate through the Mobility Office. The appeal must include the information necessary to identify the application and the subject of the complaint. The appeal will be submitted to a committee consisting of the Director of International Relations and the faculty coordinators. The committee decide on the appeal within 5 working days of submission.

8. Distribution meeting

After the selection of the winning applications, a distribution meeting is held, where the available scholarship slots and semesters are chosen based on ranking. In case of the same scores decision is made based on the academic average.

Scores required for winning the scholarship:

  • Minimum 100 points for medical students
  • Minimum 90 points for students of dentistry and pharmaceutical sciences

If you are unable to attend the distribution meeting in person, you can authorize another person in writing to act on your behalf.

Applicants who meet the eligibility criteria but do not receive a scholarship will be placed on a reserve list based on their score. If a successful applicant does not participate in the program due to withdrawal or other factors, or the decision to apply is invalidated, the applicant in the reserve list can take their place.

If the successful applicant does not wish to use the grant awarded, or does not wish to participate in the program despite a successful application, he/she must inform the Mobility Office immediately in writing. The application decision will no longer be valid for this student.
