Africa-Press – Eswatini. The Ministry of Labour and Social Security has provided an updated link for students wishing to study in the Republic of Serbia.
The Ministry provided the link on June 30, 2025, with the assistance of the Government of the Republic of Serbia. The link is the one that will give information to the students on how they are supposed to apply for the scholarships offered by Serbia to 30 Emaswati students.
This follows concerns from some Emaswati who are interested in studying in Serbia. The students were concerned that the link provided to them before was not helping them to access the material they needed to apply. The new link is: https://www.internationalscholarships.dhet.gov.za/index.php/scholarships/undergraduate-scholarships/391-serbia-the-world-in-serbia-scholarship-2024-2025.
However, the students also raised concerns that in the link, there was some information that could not be relevant to them. In response, the Ministry of Labour assured them that they should use the above link, as it was provided by the Government of Serbia. The Ministry further advised the students to ignore the dates mentioned and download and print the application form and continue with the process.
On June 28, 2025, this publication ran a story, where it stated that the Republic of Serbia was offering 30 scholarships to students from Eswatini. Below are some of the details to be considered when applying:
Key Details for Applicants:
