The Aristotle University grants a number of scholarships to foreign nationals and resident aliens, both of non-Greek descent, for undergraduate or postgraduate studies or research in any of its Schools, provided that they meet the requirements set by the scholarships regulation approved by the Aristotle University Senate. The number of scholarships available as well as the amount of the monthly grant are set each year by the Rectors' Council upon the proposal of the Studies Committee. The amount of the monthly grant for postgraduate scholarships is 30% higher than the one for undergraduate scholarships.
