UNIVERSITY students who receive a scholarship in Spain will be required to pay their grant back in full if they fail more than half of their subjects, according to a new royal decree.
The rules will come into force for the academic year 2013-2014, with students having to pass a third of their subjects under the current guidelines.
The new legislation will also include changes to the academic and income requirements of those applying for scholarships.
This should ensure scruffy, poor people don’t risk gaining scholarships.
