4,309 Diaspora Armenian students currently study at universities of
Armenia. Students from Georgia, mostly from Georgia's
Armenian-populated region of Javakhk, make up the largest proportion
of Diaspora Armenian students, followed by those from Russia and Iran,
Chairman of the Council of Diaspora Armenian Students Samvel Mkoyan
said during a meeting with reporters today.
The majority of Diaspora students study at Medical University, State
Engineering University of Armenia, and Pedagogical University.
Speaking about the problems of Diaspora Armenian students, the council
chairman mentioned tuition fees which are by 30% higher than those
paid by students residing in Armenia.
There has been an increase in the number of Syrian Armenian students.
According to S. Mkoyan, they have accommodation problems, but various
organizations help them, the preliminary courses at various
universities give 50% discounts to Syrian Armenians, while the
Armenian Youth Fund has transferred 40 million AMD in payment of
tuition fees of Syrian Armenian students in bachelor's programs.
The speaker stressed that a free system is available to excellent
students from the Diaspora, but there is no discount system, which is
an obstacle.
