The programme supports Bachelor's, Master's, and PhD study in Romania. Based on the referenced posting, the scholarship is fully funded and typically includes full tuition coverage, a monthly stipend, free accommodation, and emergency medical support. A Romanian language preparatory year may also be provided for students who need to study in Romanian before beginning their degree programme.

Fields mentioned in the referenced opportunity include areas such as engineering and architecture, economics and business, agricultural sciences, social and political sciences, and education/Romanian culture. The posting also clearly states that Medicine and Pharmacy are excluded.

This scholarship is intended for students who want to undertake their studies at eligible Romanian higher education institutions. Applicants should review the current call carefully to confirm eligible programmes, language arrangements, and submission instructions. The referenced posting indicates that applications may be submitted according to the call instructions, including email-based submission in that cycle.

If you are a non-EU applicant looking for funded study in Romania, the ARICE scholarship can be a valuable route to pursue a full degree with substantial financial support and language preparation where needed.
