There were reports on social networks that women who are enrolled in the master’s degree program in the winter admission were told to pay the tuition fee themselves. The Ministry of Higher Education, Science and Innovation reacted to this and clarified the situation.

According to the presidential decree and the government’s decision, the tuition fees of all the women studying at the master’s level of state higher education institutions will be reimbursed without the condition of return. This procedure applies equally to women admitted to study on the basis of a contract in the master’s degree program in the winter admission.

Also, the ministry asked those admitted to the master’s program to apply to the university leadership to use the above privilege.

For information, the payment of females’ tuition fees is inapplicable for those who did not apply before the specified period, those admitted to study on the basis of a differentiated tuition fee, and master’s program of non-state HEI.
