• The doctoral scholarship is paid from the national budget fund and is transferred to the student via electronic bank transfer to the account at the number which the student filled in the Student Information System (SIS). This payment is periodical and goes backwards (the student receives a payment for their previous month). The first payment for October is received in the middle of November. Payments proceed through the months of July and August (summer holiday) as well.

• The scholarship is free of personal income tax.
