The Ministry of Education has been running for more than 12 years the national social protection program "High School Money", through which it provides financial support for students in high schools and schools of arts and trades.

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 dependent on 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 protective measure or are under guardianship or curatorship, if the above-mentioned income condition is met.

The documents will be submitted as copies, provided that, upon submission of the application, the applicant also presents the original documents.

IMPORTANT!

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