Step-by-step instructions

    Identify your education level and application type.

    The deadline for new secondary-school applicants differs from the deadline for new university applicants. Continuing an existing scholarship is a separate process from a first award.

    The call requires a combination of a qualifying exceptional achievement and the required academic performance or another special criterion.

  3. 3
    Download the current form and supporting documents.

    Use the documents for call 392. JR, including the amendment dated 28 July 2026.

  4. 4
    Submit by an accepted method before your deadline.

    Send the application by post, deliver it in person or submit it electronically through Moja eUprava. For a minor, the legal representative submits the electronic application with their own electronic identity.

Before submitting, check

  • whether you are applying as a secondary-school pupil or university student and which deadline applies
  • whether this is a first award, progression to a higher level, or continued receipt of the scholarship
  • evidence of an exceptional achievement and the required academic-performance criterion
  • whether you are using the amended application documents of 28 July 2026
Deadlines and conditions can change. If our summary differs from the latest official notice, the responsible institution’s official information prevails.
