A. G. Leventis Foundation Educational Grants Scheme

The Foundation’s Educational Grants Scheme is an annual programme of grants intended for postgraduate and doctoral students. The scholarship programme had been initiated by A. G. Leventis himself, who was thoroughly committed to providing the means for young people to benefit from a university education. It has been gradually systematised and greatly expanded, exclusively at university level, and since 1992- with the establishment of a University in Cyprus- only at post-graduate level.

Competition is very keen and typically, in any given year, we are only able to approve one in eight of eligible applications. Emphasis is given to the academic ability of the candidate and their economic situation. To maximise the number of students assisted, our grants cover only part of the expenses of study.
