Scholarship Support for ATU Students Participating in Academic Mobility
The ATU Endowment Corporate Foundation, as part of its Strategic Development Charity Programme, provides scholarship support to ATU students undertaking self-funded academic mobility in the spring semester of 2027.
The support aims to help students partially cover the costs of travelling and studying abroad.
Who Is Eligible?
Students included in ATU’s official order authorising participation in self-funded academic mobility.
The university conducts the main selection process for academic mobility participants. The Department of International Cooperation (DIC) coordinates the relevant procedures. The Foundation selects scholarship recipients from among students who have already passed the university’s selection process.
Scholarship Amount
The scholarship of KZT 270,000 per academic semester is paid as a lump sum.
The number of recipients is determined by the Foundation’s approved budget. Support is awarded to applicants with the highest overall scores.
Assessment Criteria
-
Academic performance — up to 40 points: GPA as confirmed by an academic transcript.
-
Foreign language proficiency — up to 30 points: language certificates confirming proficiency in the language of instruction at the host university.
-
Student and community engagement — up to 20 points: achievements over the past two years, volunteering, and participation in events and projects. These must be supported by certificates, awards, letters of appreciation, or other documents.
-
Social circumstances — 10 points: being without parental care, a student’s disability, low family income, belonging to a large family, the loss of one or both parents, having a dependent family member with a disability, or other documented circumstances that significantly hinder the ability to finance the trip.

Documents are assessed by the Foundation’s standing Expert Commission. Scholarships are formally awarded by order of the Foundation’s Director.
