The preliminary selection stage of the Rector’s Scholarship Competition, organised by Nordic International University in celebration of 17 November — International Students’ Day, has taken place.

The applications submitted by participating students were carefully reviewed. Candidates underwent a comprehensive assessment based on their GPA, research publications, foreign language proficiency, academic and other achievements, as well as their active involvement in university life.


Following the evaluation, 30 students successfully qualified for the next stage — the interview. During the interviews, the assessment extended beyond academic knowledge and achievements to encompass candidates’ ways of thinking, individual perspectives, and future aspirations.


In particular, the evaluation focused on their intellectual capacity, independent and critical thinking, ability to navigate challenging situations and develop effective solutions, practical impact of their achievements, future ambitions, communication skills, and ability to articulate their ideas clearly and confidently.


The most exciting moment is now just around the corner! Upon completion of the competition, 18 students will be awarded the prestigious title of Rector’s Scholarship recipients.


🌟 The winners will be officially announced at a special ceremony on 17 November, in celebration of International Students’ Day!
