NOVA Boris Trajkovski Scholarship

The program was established in 2005, in honor of the late Macedonian President Boris Trajkovski. The president's family believed that individual leadership potential and an international mindset could be the cornerstones of a program focused on educating high school students (grades 9-12) in a system different from the public schools' one. 

Between 2005 - 2022, the BT-NOVA Scholarship program has supported the matriculation of 53 full-tuition scholarship students.

The academic 2023-2024 marks our 19th year of celebrating this program's partnership with the BT International Foundation. 

This year, the following public school students have been awarded a full BT scholarship: 

  • Ana Cvetkovska  
  • Viktor Jakimov 
  • Damjan Stojanovski

Other round-2 participants have received written notification of their final placement and whether they will be recipients of a partial scholarship, as well as further instructions about completing the application process. 

We congratulate all recipients and thank all students who participated in this year's scholarship program.
