Yerevan State University (YSU) has launched the university-level stage of the national Best Student competition, which awards individual scholarships to top-performing students enrolled in higher education programs at institutions across Armenia.
The competition aims to recognize the achievements and initiatives of high-performing students in education, science, culture and sports, while encouraging their involvement in research, creative activities and public life.
The competition is open to full-time second- to fourth-year bachelor's students and master's students who have completed their first semester.
To participate in the university-level stage at YSU, applicants must complete the application form and attach the required documents.
The completed application form and supporting documents must be submitted to the YSU General Department (Central Building, second floor, Room 207) by 4 p.m. on October 26, 2026. Scanned copies of all documents, combined into a single PDF file, must also be emailed to milena.sargsyan@ysu.am.
The email subject line must follow this format: "Best Student: Your full name, faculty, degree program and year of study" (for example, "Best Student: Poghos Poghosyan, Faculty of International Relations, master's program, second year").
The competition consists of two stages: university-level and inter-university (national). It is held separately for bachelor's and master's students in the following fields:
Natural sciences (including mathematics and information and communication technologies (ICT))
