TA and Scholarships

To be eligible for Tuition Assistance, you must meet the following requirements:

• Be an Armenian Citizen or Syrian-Armenian.
• Submit a complete, online Application for Admission at admissions.aua.am/apply as well as a Tuition Assistance Application form.
• Be admitted and enroll as a full-time student.

Applying for tuition assistance may seem like a daunting task. But it's not! To apply for tuition assistance, you need to complete a Tuition Assistance (TA) Application form. You may download the form here. The Tuition Assistance Application will take some time to complete - so make sure you give yourself ample time to fill it out and prepare all required documents. We also recommend you review the TA Checklist below to help you simplify the process and ensure you submit a complete application. Still unsure of what to do? No worries. Set up a time to meet with a Financial Aid Counselor by contacting them finaid.aua.am/contacts.

Many applicants worry that applying to financial aid may hurt their chances for admission. At AUA, this is not true since we practice need-blind admissions. Because of our need-blind admissions, you must submit a separate application for Tuition Assistance around the same time that you submit your Application for Admission. If you apply for early admissions, then you must apply for tuition assistance by their first deadline. The same is true for regular and rolling admissions. Tuition assistance deadline dates are as follows:

* Tuition assistance for rolling applicants is subject to availability of funds.
** Not applicable for MSM and Summer CTEFL applicants.

You are eligible to apply for International Scholarship if you:

• Are an International Citizen*.
• Submit a complete, online Application for Admission at admissions.aua.am/apply.
• Are admitted and will enroll as a full-time student.

* If you hold dual citizenship with Armenia or have the 10 year residency, you are not eligible for the International Scholarship.

Interested international students should submit the "Application for International Scholarship" to the Office of Financial Aid. You may download the form here. Applications for international scholarships can also be submitted to the Office of Financial Aid in person or via email to [email protected]. Have some questions about the application or need some counseling? Set up a time to meet with a Financial Aid Counselor by contacting them finaid.aua.am/contacts.

To be considered for the International Scholarship, you must apply by June 30 deadline for Fall Admission. However, we recommend you submit your application earlier, around the same time as your Application for Admission. Why? International Scholarship Applications are considered on a rolling basis. This will allow you to learn about your scholarship award amount shortly after receiving your offer of admission (if you are admitted).

Starting from the 2022-23 academic year the Program scholarships should include a stronger focus on active social commitment and humanitarian values.

The preference will be given to the continuing students with the highest academic performance and new applicants with the most competitive scores and readiness to contribute to the agreed activities, which may include inter alia, volunteering work in collaboration with relevant transformative skills activities at the University (offered through the Open Center for Systems Thinking).

The scholarship may be discontinued if the recipient fails to comply with the volunteering component as defined in the award letter.

To be considered for the scholarship, the applicant must submit a completed application form to the Financial Aid office. Recipients will continue to receive the scholarship throughout their studies at AUA, as long as they remain in good academic standing.
