Around 150 Syrian-Armenian students now continuing their higher
education in Armenia will be receiving stipends this week from a
group called the Armenia Youth Foundation.
The stipends will be directly paid to the college or university
attended by the students.
The Foundation has a 40 million stipend pool to allocate. Individual
amounts will be based on the various tuition rates being paid by
the students.
On November 29, the Armenian government allocated 100 million for
tuition reimbursement. 60 million was earmarked for students displaying
high academic achievement and social activism who are currently paying
for their higher education.
The remaining 40 million was earmarked for Syrian-Armenians.
