With a budget of some 80 million HUF, the „Road to higher education” subprogram has come to existence within the framework of the „For the road” scholarship program. The goal of the subprogram, launched by the Human Resources Support Management Office on behalf of the Ministry of Human Resources, is to improve the equal opportunities of students with disadvantages and multiple disadvantages in higher education by helping their gain their diplomas through providing support in the form of a grant and towards their tuition fees.

Students with Hungarian citizenship admitted to Bachelor, Master, or undivided higher education courses in 2012 may apply for scholarship support provided they do not already possess a degree at a similar level or participate in other education of the same level. Those students who were admitted to Hungarian full time higher education with a full scholarship, part scholarship or as self-funded students and who qualified as being disadvantaged or multiply disadvantaged during the 2012 admission process may apply for scholarship support. People who receive aftercare or aftercare services may also be included. From the beginning of the second semester, only those applicants who have obtained a sufficient number of credits may be awarded continued support. Applications for the tender advertised by the Human Resources Support Management Office on behalf of the Ministry of Human Resources may be submitted until 17, October 2012.
