For å ha rett til stipendet, må universitetet du skal studere ved være på kvalifiseringslisten til Direktoratet for høyere utdanning og kompetanse (HK-dir). HK-dir reviderer denne listen hvert år. Det betyr at noen læresteder kan bli fjernet, og andre lagt til.
Studenter som har begynt på en utdanning med rett til utvidet stipend, vil fortsatt kunne få dette stipendet til de er ferdige med utdanningen, selv om universitetet har blitt fjernet fra listen i mellomtiden.
Endringer i listen fra studieåret 2026-2027
To universiteter som var på listen i 2025-2026, blir fjernet fra listen. Disse er Brown University (USA) og Purdue University – West Lafayette (USA).
De to universitetene som blir lagt til i listen fra neste studieår, er City University of Hong Kong (Kina), og University of California, Davis (USA).
