SUSPENSION OF MILITARY SERVICE FOR THOSE WITH UNIVERSITY PLACES IN BRITAIN

 Filenews 3 September 2020

The exceptional suspension of service for the soldiers of the 2020 Second ESSO who secured a place in the British Universities was decided by the Council of Ministers.

With this decision, recruits who have secured a place at British Universities are expected to benefit from the tuition fees that students from EU countries would pay this year, as Brexit-related variations are in place.

Interested parties will have to submit an application and details will be announced within the day.

It is recalled that 522 males had expressed an interest in studying in Britain through the common platform set up by the Ministry of Defence and the Ministry of Education. Some of them, of course, have already secured a place at the University of Cyprus. It is therefore understood that the number of males benefiting from the Cabinet's decision will not exceed 522, and there may be several fewer.
