All nationals of non-EU nations may apply, regardless of where they currently reside. Priority is given to residents of non-EU nations with which Romania does not have mutually beneficial agreements in the fields of education and culture.
How to Apply for Romanian Government Scholarships
The candidates should apply directly to the diplomatic embassies of Romania accredited to the candidate’s nation of origin, residency or diplomatic mission accredited to Bucharest in the candidate’s state of origin.
This is to obtain all the information they require regarding the scholarships (conditions, required paperwork, and the enrollment schedule) and to submit their application materials.
Important Notes
Language of Study
The Ministry of National Education has decided that the scholarship recipients must exclusively study in Romanian to support the Romanian language and culture.
Candidates who do not speak Romanian are given an additional year of preparation to learn it. Students who claim to speak Romanian must pass a language test that the appropriate higher education institutions have set up.
Application Deadline: 15th March 2025
This is the deadline for application files to be submitted with a verbal note to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs Directorate of Public, Cultural, and Scientific Diplomacy by foreign diplomatic missions accredited to Bucharest.
However, the applicant should inquire about the enrollment schedule at the diplomatic mission where he plans to submit the application file. Each diplomatic post sets its application file submission deadline.
