Haiti - Education : «Excellence scholarships» Program of the Primature
The Prime Minister, Enex Jean-Charles, is about to launch the « Excellence scholarships » Program of the Primature for the laureates coming from official examinations of the Baccalaureate.

They will also receive a monthly amount of subsistence equivalent to the minimum wage in force in the Haitian government. These amounts will be paid on a BNC debit card that will be fed regularly by the Primature.
The laureate wishing pursue its university studies abroad will receive from Primature a fixed premium in US dollars or its equivalent in gourdes on presentation of evidence of registration and admission in a foreign university.
In addition to annual tuition and living expensesthroughout the duration of university studies of first level, the laureates will also receive from the Ministry of National Education, a kit of teaching and learning materials including a laptop computer, a USB stick with an Internet annual subscription and dictionaries.
