Kalaydjian Foundation Launches University Scholarship Programme
20th February 2009
The Kalaydjian Foundation, a non-profit benevolent organisation based in
Cyprus, is pleased to announce the start of two new programmes aimed at
providing support for education at both secondary and advanced levels.
As part of its efforts to provide targeted support in the present
difficult economic climate, the Kalaydjian Foundation has decided to
provide an annual grant to all Cypriot students who are graduates of
Narek elementary schools and are currently enrolled or will be enrolled
in private secondary schools in Cyprus. This assistance, up to
=82¬400 per child, will be provided to all eligible applicants
irrespective of their family's income level, starting from the
academic year 2009-2010. Families who would be interested in receiving
this grant should submit an application to Mr. Hagop Kasparian by
September 30th at the latest. Mr. Kasparian can be contacted on
00357-22-429306.
The Foundation's second programme is a scholarship that will
provide free post-graduate education to gifted Armenian Cypriot
students. The primary aim of this programme is to allow talented
students, who would otherwise not have the chance to continue their
education, the opportunity to receive a Master's degree and
therefore enhance significantly their career prospects. To that end, the
Kalaydjian Foundation has signed a collaboration agreement with the
American University of Armenia in Yerevan.
The American University of Armenia (AUA) is a US-accredited educational
institution affiliated with the University of California and located in
Yerevan. AUA's academic programme provides English-language
graduate education in Business and Management (MBA), Industrial
Engineering, Information and Communication Technologies, Political
Science, Health Sciences and Law.
Since its inception in 1991, it has provided advanced education to over
1,600 Armenians from all over the world. A major advantage is the fact
that enrolled students from the diaspora live in the safe and beautiful
city of Yerevan and make vital contacts and life-long friendships in
their ancestral homeland.
The Kalaydjian Foundation aims to send one Armenian Cypriot student
every year to the AUA for higher education, starting from the academic
year 2010-2011. It will provide a full scholarship that will cover the
entire cost of tuition. It will also offer advice and assistance on
other issues, such as accommodation in Yerevan. The deadline for
applications is 31st March 2010. The admission criteria are stringent
and include an undergraduate degree from a recognised university or
college in Cyprus or Europe/America, and suitable work experience.
Interested parties should contact the Foundation on
