Please note that student is entitled to social scholarship only if at the time of recruitment was entitled to the social scholarship at the University of Gdansk*.

After receiving the decision to award the scholarship, the student is required to submit a copy of the decision to SOP E+ by March 31, 2025 at the latest.

Note: Failure to include a copy of the decision to grant social benefits in the candidate's form if the candidate indicated in the Scholarship Form that they "receive a social scholarship" will result in their automatic qualification as a scholarship holder without an additional allowance.
