‘I am absolutely sure that Vilnius University will give me a lot of opportunities to develop my potential’ – Dmitrij Gritsok, student from Minsk

The protest and unrests in Belarus started even before the presidential elections. But after rigged elections unrests become larger. Thousands of people were arrested, used for physical violence and coercion. Hundreds of young people started to search ways to leave the country and build their future outside Belarus.
By the decision of the management of Vilnius University, which has always been friendly to foreign students, was initiated a program at the university to encourage Belarusian students to choose to study in Lithuania. Scholarships, integration in science and society - such assistance was offered by the Vilnius University to students from Belarus.
