YEREVAN, SEPTEMBER 22, ARMENPRESS: Forty-five students of Yerevan
State University with best academic achievements received today a
total of $28,000 in money rewards from the Gulbenkian Foundation.
Yerevan State University pro-rector Alexander Grigorian said it is
the second year the best academic students receive rewards of the
Foundation. He said this is very instrumental for those students who
are in paid departments to pay their tuition fees.
The students were selected by a specially set up commission based on
their achievements and social conditions.
The money was transferred in US Dollars and because of unprecedented
fall of US Dollar's value against Armenian Dram. the reward is not
enough to pay an annual tuition fee, but the University has pledged
to pay the rest.
