Universidad de las Regiones Autónomas de la Costa Caribe Nicaragüense (URACCAN) Opportunities

The university's live scholarship page lists excellence awards (including academic, research, innovation/entrepreneurship, cultural and sports routes), full/special/lodging internal scholarships, external academic scholarship levels A–D, UNICAM scholarships, food support, transport support and student-leadership scholarships. Application and renewal requirements differ by category and are handled through the relevant Area of Knowledge or Regional University Centre (CUR). The official page provides online or in-person application instructions for several routes but does not state one universal application deadline.

The programme is for URACCAN undergraduate and degree students and prioritises young people from Indigenous, Afro-descendant and mestizo communities on Nicaragua's Caribbean Coast. Requirements vary by scholarship type. For example, a new applicant for a full internal scholarship submits the scholarship form, a request letter, current-semester enrolment evidence, Nicaraguan identity documentation, student identification, a current conduct certificate unless under 16, and a current MINSA health certificate. Returning full-internal recipients also need academic history and at least an 80% or 4-point average under the competency curriculum.
