College Scholarships Offer Opportunity for Kosovo’s Minority Students
In an effort to help minority students gain access to better education, USAID is providing a number of scholarships for students wishing to study at the American University in Kosovo (AUK).
In order to make on-campus living more appealing for potential students, AUK is remodeling some of their current faculty housing into student housing. A total of five full, four-year scholarships will be available to successful applicants.
AUK staff and USAID's FORECAST staff are visiting schools throughout Kosovo to raise awareness of this opportunity among eligible candidates. A public information campaign encompassing radio advertisements, billboards, e-mail announcements to NGOs working with minority communities, and distribution of program information by "Nasa Kuca", a minority NGO Network has also been launched to encourage potential applicants.
