Education grants

Applying for education grants for students

Granting benefits in accordance with the Federal Education and Training Assistance Act for students in general education schools, vocational colleges, technical colleges and night schools by the competent authority.

The benefit issued for students is grant funding.

The amount of the benefit depends on the type of education, the income and assets of the student and the income of their spouse and parents.

The income levels from the calendar year before last are required to assess the income of the spouse and parents. If the income of the spouse or parents has significantly decreased compared with calendar year before last, an update application can be made.

The Federal Education and Training Assistance Act does not go by income limits; it grants free allowances.
