NEPOMAK (the World Organisation for Young Overseas Cypriots) is delighted to announce that some of the best universities in Cyprus are now offering generous scholarships to our members*. These scholarships are possible thanks to the excellent support and efforts of the Government of the Republic of Cyprus, the Presidential Commissioner of Cyprus and the universities themselves.

Scholarships are available at the European University Cyprus, Frederick University, the University of Central Lancashire Cyprus (UCLAN Cyprus), the Open University of Cyprus, the University of Cyprus, the University of Nicosia, and the Cyprus Institute of Neurology & Genetics School of Molecular Medicine.

The scholarships cover an extensive variety of courses and there are opportunities at undergraduate, postgraduate and PhD levels. As well as choice about the level of the course, some of the universities offer the flexibility of either studying at the university or studying through distance learning. Details of scholarships vary between universities but specific information can be found on our newly launched scholarships webpage (www.nepomak.org/scholarships)

Information about how to apply, as well as contact details for the universities, can be found on our webpage. Applications are made directly to the universities themselves but applicants should notify NEPOMAK as described on the website.

Commenting on the new scholarship opportunities, NEPOMAK President Christos Tuton said, “I am delighted that we are able to offer these scholarships to young overseas Cypriots and play a major role in connecting the diaspora with some of Cyprus’ top universities. For many, higher education can be extremely expensive and I believe that these scholarships will enhance people’s lives by enabling them to have educational opportunities that they otherwise wouldn’t have had. Special thanks go to Presidential Commissioner Photis Photiou and his team for making these scholarships possible and to the universities for being generous with their offers.”
