The list is revised annually. Students who are already enrolled in a degree programme that entitles them to the extended grant for tuition fees, will continue to receive the grant until the degree is finished, even if the university has been removed from the list.
For the upcoming academic year there are five universities that have been removed from the list and five universities that have been added to the list. The list is comprised of 75 universities in total.
