The Ministry of Higher Education, Science and Innovation of Uzbekistan has denied social media reports about a ban on the admission of applicants from India and Bangladesh.

The ministry stated that the information being circulated is false, and that the country is interested in expanding the flow of foreign students and developing the export of educational services.

Starting from the current academic year, application submissions for foreign applicants have been arranged through the unified electronic platform Study in Uzbekistan. The service is free of charge, allows applicants to learn about study conditions, and submit documents directly to educational institutions without intermediaries.

Each higher education institution determines its own intake volume for foreign citizens. When setting quotas, the capacity of lecture halls and laboratories, teaching staff, and the availability of places in student dormitories are taken into account.

What it means

Foreign applicants can submit documents online directly through the Study in Uzbekistan platform free of charge, and if difficulties arise, submit inquiries through the communication channels available on the service.
