News from VMU rectorate

At the rector's meeting held on the afternoon of September 24, which was also attended by the President of the VMU Student Representation Justinas Petkus, strategic decisions regarding the admission of students to the VMU in 2015 were discussed, as well as the new provisions of the Marketing and Communication Service of the humanities and social sciences policy in Lithuania.

During the rectorship, VMU Law Faculty student Andriis Jurevičius was awarded the Magnusson and Partners Scholarship of the Professional Association of Lawyers. This nominal annual scholarship was established in order to promote the social activity and progress of the students of the Faculty of Law of VMU.

About strategic decisions regarding admission to VDU in 2015:

After the self-analysis of Vytautas the Great University, it was decided to adopt new resolutions regarding admissions and new programs at our university. Due to the humanities and social sciences policy in Lithuania, it is said that the price of enrolling in social sciences and philology studies may increase. Also, with the changes in the exam procedure and the amendment regarding the mandatory math exam, it is intended to reconsider the minimum admission scores for study programs.

Regarding discounts for studies:

From now on, great attention will be paid to students' averages, and support for students who submit each semester will be given to those whose family income is less than 500 litas, as well as the procedure for support for the disabled and students from large families will be changed. When providing support, their learning results and averages will be taken into account.
