Thursday January 21 at the National Palace in the presence of President Jovenel Moïse took place the ceremony of awarding scholarships to 1,000 young people, who will go to the universities of the Conference of Rectors, Presidents and Directors of Universities and Institutions of 'Haitian Higher Education (CORPUHA).

Addressing the recipients, the Head of State declared "It is with great pleasure that I welcome 1,000 young people this Thursday to give them their certificate of admission to the scholarship program initiated by the Haitian State through the National Education Fund (FNE).

This scholarship, you obtained it on the basis of merit since you passed the competition with flying colors. It is neither the sponsorship nor the political connections that earned you this scholarship. My Administration wanted to prove once again that we believe in excellence".

In addition, the first three candidates admitted from each department were invited to participate in a ceremony to award certificates of admission that same day.

For its part, the FNE has assured the happy scholarship holders that their admission certificates are being finalized and that they will be able to withdraw them shortly from the departmental directorates of education.
