Many questions arise from applicants who have already studied on a state-funded basis, have been expelled and are planning to re-enter on a state-funded basis. According to the current legislation (Resolution of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine dated 26.08.2015 No. 658 (as amended)), this is possible subject to reimbursement of funds spent by the state on their training.

Many people think that this is the cost of the contract, but the reimbursement amounts are much higher than the cost of the contract and do not depend on it at all.

🤔 Where to start?

Contact the educational institution where you studied before and order an academic certificate. As a rule, such certificates are issued by the dean’s office. It is worth addressing this issue now, because it takes up to 2 weeks to issue a certificate.

🧐 How do I apply for admission? Is it the same as everyone else or are there any peculiarities?

The issue of reimbursement will arise only when the applicant is recommended for the budget, so if you are recommended, it’s time to think about it.

📅 When and how will I find out about the need for a refund?

At the stage of confirmation of the conditions for admission by the applicant, the admission committee informs about the need to refund the funds and, as a rule, instructs on further actions.

🤓 Can I find out the amount of refund in advance?

No, this can only be done after enrollment. Within ten days after the publication of the order of enrollment, you must contact the dean’s office of the faculty/institute of the educational institution where you are enrolled to complete all the necessary documents for reimbursement. You must have an academic transcript with you.

❗️ Be careful! Good luck in the admission campaign!
