Cuba Scholarship announcement 2026/2027

In a significant bilateral educational initiative, the Republic of Cuba has partnered with the Grenadian government to offer comprehensive scholarship opportunities for Grenadian nationals for the 2026/2027 academic year. The program encompasses technical diploma, undergraduate, and specialized postgraduate medical studies exclusively for doctors who completed their medical education at Cuban universities.

Eligibility criteria mandate that applicants must be citizens of Grenada in good health. Age restrictions apply specifically to technical diploma and undergraduate programs, requiring candidates to be between 16 and 25 years of age. The application process requires submission of two copies of all documentation, including a completed scholarship application form obtainable via scholarships.edu@gov.gd, certified copies of birth certificates, valid passport bio-data pages, academic certificates, transcripts from previous institutions, two reference letters, and a 500-word essay addressing how the chosen field of study will contribute to both personal development and Grenada’s future advancement.

The scholarship package represents a comprehensive support system, covering full tuition fees, accommodation expenses, round-trip airline tickets, and an annual stipend. All application materials must be physically delivered to the Scholarship Desk at the Human Resource Development Division within the Ministry of Education by February 27, 2026.

Prospective applicants seeking additional information may contact the Human Resource Development Division at (473) 440-2737/2738 or (473) 417-9762, or via email at scholarships.edu@gov.gd. This initiative strengthens educational ties between the two nations while providing substantial opportunities for Grenadian students across multiple academic disciplines.
