About scholarship.sk

scholarship.sk is an independent information website about scholarships for studying and doing research in Slovakia, and about scholarships that help students from Slovak universities go abroad.

Not the official programme website

The National Scholarship Programme of the Slovak Republic is run by SAIA, n. o., under a contract with the Ministry of Education, Research, Development and Youth of the Slovak Republic. Its official websites are www.scholarships.sk in English and www.stipendia.sk in Slovak.

We are not connected to SAIA, the ministry or any university. We do not accept, assess or forward applications, and we cannot answer questions about a particular application. Please contact SAIA for those.

Why you may have landed here

Many university and ministry websites around the world announce the National Scholarship Programme with a link to “www.scholarship.sk”, without the final “s”. If you followed such a link to apply, the official application is at www.scholarships.sk.

How we work

• Every number on this site comes from official sources: programme terms, laws and ministry websites. Each page lists its sources and the date we last checked them.
• We review the pages before each deadline of the National Scholarship Programme, in March and in September.
• Our pages are summaries. Where they differ from the official terms, the official terms apply.
• The site is free to use and does not ask for any personal data.
