The Government of the Republic of Slovenia offers a limited number of scholarships for each academic year to foreign students or researchers who wish to come to Slovenia as postgraduate visiting scholars. The scholarships are granted for all fields of study offered by Slovene Universities. Only a few of the scholarships are applied for in global competition; priority is given to citizens of countries with bilateral agreements or countries with which direct reciprocal exchange of government scholarships exists, and to applicants who have already established contacts with Slovene university institutions or departments that are willing to accept them for the proposed term. The age limit of candidates is 35 years and the duration of the scholarship can range from three to nine months. The scholarship cannot be granted for any Slovene language courses. Tuition fees cannot be covered from the scholarship, which only covers free accommodation in the facilities of the Student Centre of the Universities, free basic medical insurance (if there is no bilateral agreement on health insurance), a minimum stipend for monthly living costs and some fringe benefits. Candidates should speak Slovene or the language agreed upon with their mentor/supervisor.
