Education: 64,000 Students to Receive Aid

The Ministry of Education announced that approximately 64,000 students are expected to be covered by university grants and loans this year, with applications opening in the second half of November after the situation of universities and students has stabilized. The ministry is focusing on processing applications quickly before the registration for the second semester, aiming to ease the financial burdens. Additionally, the allocations for the fund have been increased to 40 million dinars, with support being derived from the revenue generated by the sale of special license plates. Amendments have also been made to the system for distributing grants and the associated restrictions to ensure a fairer distribution across regions with varying population densities. The goal is to increase student benefits in remote areas and make it easier for students to access grants and loans.
