As a proud EU member, Lithuania provides state-funded scholarships to foreign students who want to finish the last two years of an integrated study program or pursue a full-time master’s degree at accredited Lithuanian universities. The Education Exchanges Support Foundation, which encourages global academic cooperation and helps talented, driven students from all around the world, is in charge of administering these scholarships.
There are 70 scholarships available for the 2025 school year. These esteemed scholarships pay for living expenses as well as tuition, freeing up students to concentrate entirely on their studies and personal growth. Although students from a variety of disciplines are welcome to apply, the program gives preference to applicants from particular qualified nations and priority academic fields, such as STEM, innovation, and sustainable development.
More than just financial aid, the Lithuanian State Scholarship for Master’s Studies 2025 opens doors to top-notch education, cutting-edge research facilities, and a lively European way of life. Students can flourish academically and socially in Lithuania because of its rich academic heritage, safe and reasonably priced housing, and cosmopolitan atmosphere.
This grant provides the perfect opportunity to further your profession, do worthwhile research, or experience a different culture. Lithuania welcomes aspirational international students to join its unique academic community and create their future in the center of Europe with full financing, no tuition fees, and monthly living expense support.
