Overview

Lithuanian State Scholarships, funded by the Government of Lithuania through the Education Exchanges Support Foundation (EESF), support international master's students.

The 2026 call pays roughly €592/month plus tuition.

A limited number of grants (about 70) is shared across all eligible countries.

Who can apply

  • The 2026 call is master's-degree only.
  • Eligible countries include Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Azerbaijan and Ukraine (Ukraine has a dedicated 20-grant quota); Kyrgyzstan is not on the 2026 list.
  • Russian citizens are excluded and most visa/residence applications from Russia are suspended under national sanctions.
  • Belarusian citizens are excluded from the standard call — the only route is the SALT III cost-of-living scholarship (€650/month, for students persecuted or threatened by the regime).
