Scholarship for the Disabled

You cannot receive a scholarship if, among other things:

1. You are not a student, e.g. after being removed from the list of students or after obtaining a degree/dissertation defense, or you have not completed the formalities necessary for admission.
2. You hold a degree:
   1. master’s degree, master’s degree in engineering or equivalent;
   2. bachelor’s degree, engineer’s degree or equivalent, if resuming first degree studies.
3. You have been studying for more than 12 semesters, regardless of whether you have previously received scholarships and/or aid grants, with the proviso that within the 12-semester period, benefits are available for studies:
   1. first degree – no longer than for 9 semesters;
   2. second degree – no longer than for 7 semesters.

The total period referred to above is longer by 2 semesters if the student has taken a single master’s degree program, the duration of which, as prescribed by law, is 11 or 12 semesters.

4. The period referred to in paragraph 3 includes all semesters started by the student in studies, including semesters falling during the period of use of dean’s leaves, with the exception of semesters in consecutive first degree studies started or continued after obtaining the first bachelor’s, engineer’s or equivalent degree. In the case of education in several fields of study, semesters taken simultaneously are treated as one semester.
5. Exceptionally, if the disability arose during the course of study or after obtaining a degree, the scholarship for persons with disabilities is entitled for an additional period of 12 semesters.
