A student may submit the formal application for the scholarship only at one university and degree programme they indicate in the application.<\/p>\n
The application for the Rector\u2019s Scholarship, together with attachments constituting the required documentation, should be submitted via USOSweb by 15 October or by 31 March if studies (2nd cycle) start with the summer semester.<\/p>\n
The Rector\u2019s scholarship is awarded to a student admitted to the first year of studies in the year of passing the matura exam, who is:<\/p>\n
a) winner of an international olympiad or winner or finalist of a central level olympiad referred to in the provisions on the education system,
\nb) a medallist of at least a sports competition for the title of Polish Champion in a given sport referred to in the sports regulations.<\/p>\n
A student with achievements in sports, except for students referred to in Section 12(2), shall append their substantive assessment along with the number of points collected within their achievements in sports issued by the Director of the USil Centre for Physical Education and Sport. The template for the substantive assessment form is Annex No. 8 to the Rules and Regulations of Benefits for Students. The Director of the Centre for Physical Education and Sport includes the substantive assessment of all qualified achievements of a student in one form.

The award of the Rector\u2019s Scholarship depends on the student’s place on the ranking list. Ranking lists are created for each degree programme individually, including all years, modes of studies and cycles of studies.<\/p>\n
Each year, the Rector assesses the University\u2019s financial capability and determines the percentage of students eligible for the scholarship (but no more than 10% of students of a given degree programme) and the monthly amount of the scholarship that might change in the summer semester.<\/p>\n

The average grade does not include a physical education grade or a diploma examination grade in the case of students who were admitted to the first year of the 2nd cycle studies or long-cycle studies after graduation from the 1st cycle studies at the University of Silesia.<\/p>\n
