Subject

The provision grants full free education to children of martyrs, deceased, and injured members of the armed forces who suffer severe disabilities preventing self-support during or because of military duties. Coverage includes Ministry schools and institutes, universities and colleges, and military schools at all academic levels, provided the beneficiary is under thirty years old and meets the registration requirements of the educational institution.

02

Summary

The phrase "meeting registration requirements" appears in absolute terms. The available points indicate that this wording must be applied as written without creating additional or restrictive conditions by interpretation. Meeting registration requirements is satisfied when the student applies to the institution and fulfills its registration conditions, regardless of the program, system, or basis of acceptance. Therefore, a student accepted to a bachelor's program benefits from the tuition exemption and may recover fees paid. This is a general educational summary and not a judicial text or legal advice.
