The Ministry of Education has been running for over 12 years the national social protection program "High School Money" through which it provides financial support for students in high schools and art and vocational schools.

For students who wish to obtain this financial support, we have launched the High School Money portal, which, together with the discussion forum dedicated to this national program, represents an efficient means of information.

The beneficiaries are students who are supported by families whose gross monthly income per family member, earned in the last 3 months prior to the submission of the file, is a maximum of 500 lei, as well as students who benefit from a protection measure or are under guardianship or curatorship provided that the above-mentioned income condition is met.

The documents will be submitted in copy, provided that, at the time of application, the applicant presents the original documents as well.

IMPORTANT!

By the adoption of Government Decision 712/2018 (available attached), starting with the 2018-2019 school year, each beneficiary will receive monthly, throughout the duration of the courses, provided all legal conditions stipulated are met, the amount of 250 lei/month.
In addition to indexing this amount (from 180 lei/month), the maximum threshold for granting the scholarship was also increased from 150 lei to 500 lei/family member, given the need to correlate the support threshold with the current economic situation.
