Competition for Fall Semester Scholarship

Caucasus International University has changed the amount of the scholarship and the rule for conferring Academic Scholarship in accordance with the Regulation for Awarding Successful Students with Scholarships, Single Prizes and other kinds of Incentives. In order the Scholarship Conferring Committee to make an objective and fair decision, the data on students’ academic performance must be provided together with the following information:

• Data on student participation in student, educational and scientific activities;
• Information about a student’s contribution in the development of the university and its awareness raising;

The information about educational and scientific activities and contribution to the development of the university can be submitted from September 24 to September 28 to the Service of Youth Affairs, Sport and Culture (Room # 513).

The decision on awarding the scholarship will be announced no later than October 1.

According to modified regulations the scholarship will be granted by taking into consideration the following criteria:

1. Academic performance - calculated with Grade Point Average (GPA) in the registered academic courses of the previous semester (no less than 27 credits).
2. Students, having semester GPA more than 3,5 are given an opportunity to gain a scholarship.
3. Apart from the semester academic results, the data on students’ participation in student, academic-scientific activities, as well as the contribution to university development and raising public awareness about the university are considered.
4. Academic scholarships are conferred in compliance with ranking points (maximum 420 points and minimum 350 points). The criteria are determined as follows:

a) results of academic performance are determined with Grade Point Average (GPA) which is multiplied by 100 (e.g: semester 3,70 GPA includes 370 points (maximum 400 points) while calculating);

b) The student’s participation in students’ activities at university and contribution made for university development (maximum 10 points) – a scholarship seeker submits the information himself/herself about the implemented activities. The committee members evaluate the activities in compliance with the quality of relevance and engagement separately and finally calculate an average arithmetic score;

c) the student’s participation in academic-scientific activities (conferences, debates, exchange projects, participation in students’ academic and scientific projects, participation in moot courts, etc.) (maximum point -10) - a scholarship seeker submits the information himself/herself about the implemented activities. The committee members evaluate the activities in compliance with the quality of relevance and engagement separately and finally calculate an average arithmetic score.
