On June 9, 2017, the University of Tirana Rector, Prof. Dr. Mynyr Koni received Mr. Marash Dukaj, Deputy Minister of Education, and Mr. Leon Gjokaj, Deputy Minister for Human and Minority Rights, in a work meeting.

Following a brief description of the University, Rector Koni emphasized that supporting students from Albanian territories abroad constitutes one of the University of Tirana’s priorities, although applications from Albanians from Montenegro are few in number.

They made a request to increase the number of quotas for students from Albanian territories abroad, as well as to guarantee that all applications would be approved.
