C-Quadrat Ampega Scholarship for Children Relocated from Artsakh
C-Quadrat Ampega is pleased to announce a new initiative within the framework of its Corporate Social Responsibility, dedicated to enhancing opportunities for bright children relocated from Artsakh. This initiative aims to provide them with the chance to pursue top-level high school education in Armenia.
"The launch of this initiative reflects our unwavering commitment to fostering long-term capacity building by investing in the education of talented children from Artsakh. We believe that by providing access to quality high school education, we contribute not only to the individual growth of these children but also to the sustainable development of our society, creating a long-term impact," said Arman Vardanyan, CEO of C-Quadrat Ampega.
The initiative entails the provision of merit-based scholarships for children from Artsakh to enroll in A-level or equivalent high-school programs (years 11 & 12) in Armenia, addressing an area currently not covered by other financial aid programs.
The total amount allocated for the scholarship fund is 100 million AMD. Each eligible child can opt for up to AMD 5 million for a two-year or three-year education period. To qualify for the scholarship, the child must gain admission to an eligible A-level or equivalent high-school program.
The eligible schools and programs are:
- Shirakatsy Lyceum IB Diploma Program
- Quantum College IB Diploma Program
- UWC Dilijan College IB Diploma Program
- British International School of Armenia A-level Degree Program
- CIS Armenia International School A-level Degree Program
- QSI International School of Yerevan AP Capstone Diploma Program
- Ayb School Araratian Baccalaureate
- YSU STEM program
Additional schools that will introduce the relevant high school program in 2024 will also be considered for inclusion. Furthermore, participating schools are required to demonstrate their commitment by offering a substantial (at least 30%) tuition fee discount or matching the amount from other available funds.
The execution partner for this initiative is AGBU – Armenian General Benevolent Union, committed to ensuring the equitable distribution of scholarships to schools based on applications received directly from the schools. The final approval of applicants will be conducted collaboratively.
