Student stipends in Azerbaijan 2026: bachelor, master, doctoral and college amounts

Bachelor’s includes the basic (base higher) medical programme.

In vocational education the initial and technical levels use grades instead of points: “5”, “4”–“5”, “3”–“5”; the high-technical level uses 91–100, 71–100, 51–100 points.

The amounts use the bands printed in the Order (“91–100”, “71–100”, “51–100 points”). The “71–90” and “51–70” seen in some news reports are not in the Order’s text.

• Doctoral student, doctor of sciences trackOnly those studying at the state budget’s expense; no score bands. 450 ₼a month
• Doctoral student, PhD track 300 ₼a month
• Student with a named (adlı) stipend, higher education 204 ₼a month

The Order gives this amount to “students receiving a named stipend” and does not list which stipends count as named. The President establishes named stipends for students (Rules, item 1.10). We do not state the amount of the Presidential stipend, because we have not confirmed it in an official source.

• Excellent-student stipendResults of 91–100 points in all subjects.
• Encouragement stipendResults of 71–100 points, with at least one subject at 91–100.
• Regular stipendResults of 51–100 points.

In higher and secondary specialised education students are ranked at the end of each semester by their overall average score (ÜOMG). In vocational education the half-year interim assessment is used. The number of stipend places is limited, so a high score is not a guarantee: places are filled in ranking order.
