Чи будуть гранти на освіту?
Today, the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine passed a draft law on changes to the financing of higher education in the first reading.
The main provisions of the draft law:
📌 Some students will study at the expense of the state budget, and some will receive state grants for education. This does not imply a reduction in budget funds for the training of specialists with higher education, the procedure for distribution is changed.
📌 The state budget will be formed depending on the needs of the state. For key specialties (e.g., doctors, teachers, military, engineers, etc.), full budget support for training (on a competitive basis) is preserved. A system of guaranteed first job after graduation is also being introduced.
📌 The principle of “money follows the student”, according to which the student, not the university, receives funding, will be further developed. The student will receive a certain amount of money for education (grant) based on the results of the EIT / NMT.
The amount of the grant will be determined by the government, but within the established range of 15 to 50 thousand hryvnias. The most talented applicants will receive a grant that will cover all tuition costs, while co-financing will be applied to the rest.

How to register for the NMT?
The Ministry of Education and Science and the Ministry of Justice have finally approved an important document for applicants in 2024 – Procedure for Registration for NMT-2024.
How to register this year and what to look for?
✅ All applicants must create an NMT participant account on the website of the Ukrainian Centre for Educational Quality Assessment. Registration will start on 14 March at 9:00, so do not try to register before then.
✅ At the first stage of registration, applicants must indicate the registration number of the taxpayer’s account card, surname, name, patronymic (if any), date of birth, details of the identity document (passport, ID card, international passport, driver’s licence) – series and number.
✅ You must also provide a valid phone number and email address that you have constant access to.
✅ All applicants choose the category “current year graduate” or “graduate of previous years”, the fourth subject (biology, or geography, or foreign language, or Ukrainian literature, or physics, or chemistry) and the locality in Ukraine or abroad where they plan to take the NMT, as well as the language of the certification subjects (Ukrainian or languages of national minorities (Crimean Tatar, or Polish, or Romanian, or Hungarian), if they have the opportunity to take them).
If you are abroad and continue to study remotely at a school in Ukraine and will receive a complete general secondary education this year, do not select the category “in a foreign educational institution” during registration, instead select “in an educational institution of Ukraine” from the list and upload a certificate from the place of study on obtaining education in a domestic institution.
✅ At the second stage, you need to upload scanned copies of the required documents (.png/.jpg format, size not exceeding 1 MB), such as an identity document, a document confirming information about education, and a document with a taxpayer registration number.
If necessary, the following documents are also attached:
- certificates of change of name and/or marriage certificates and/or divorce certificates (for persons whose documents contain discrepancies in personal data);
- notarized translation into Ukrainian of documents submitted for registration (for persons submitting documents in a foreign language);
- medical documents that give the right to create special conditions for the NMT.
✅ After processing the documents, regional centers must inform about the results within 7 days. Check your account for information. If the registration is successful, you will be able to generate a certificate of participation in the NMT-2024.
✅ Till April 15 in your personal account you will be able to make changes regarding the following:
- the subject of choice in which the applicant wishes to take the test;

On the unified professional entrance test in agrarian sciences, economics and management for admission to a bachelor's degree
Innovations for applicants for bachelor’s degree on the basis of a junior specialist degree, junior bachelor’s degree and professional junior bachelor’s degree. You now have the opportunity to take an additional professional entrance exam, which will be taken into account when forming the competitive score for admission to the bachelor’s degree. This innovation applies to applicants for specialties in the fields of agricultural sciences, economics and management.
What do future applicants need to know?
- Professional entrance exams are voluntary. Applicants who want to improve their competitive score and consider their professional knowledge more important than general education subjects can register for them.

- The specialties for which professional entrance exams can be taken include agricultural sciences, economics, management, culture and art, social and behavioral sciences, public administration and administration.
- To calculate the competition score, a formula is used that takes into account subject grades, weighting factors, results of a creative competition, the score of a professional entrance exam, and points for successful completion of preparatory courses at higher education institutions. For an example, see our infographic.
- Registration for professional entrance exams is carried out from April 19 to April 30 during the main session, and from June 10 to June 14 for participation in the additional session.
