Note:

The support period is based on the validity of the Certificate of poverty or near-poverty.

- In the case that during the study period, eligible students do not submit the application along with all the required documents as prescribed, they will only be paid the study support fee calculated from the day the university, the Department of Labor – War Invalids and Social Affairs receives the complete application until the end of the course. No retrospective payment of the study support fee will be made for the period before the student submitted the application along with the necessary documents.
