Torrevieja City Council, through the Departments of Youth and Education, has published the call for grants for young university students for the 2024/2025 academic year. This initiative seeks to support the city's students with the current costs of tuition, teaching materials, and public transportation (bus and train). Grants may reach a maximum of €1,500 per student, subject to proof of expenses.

The Councilor for Economy, Finance, and Youth, Domingo Paredes, stated that "these scholarships are a clear demonstration of this government's commitment to our young people and the families of Torrevieja. We want to ensure that no one is left behind in their university education for financial reasons. Investing in education means investing in the future of the city."

A minimum entrance grade or average of 5 points is required. Furthermore, per capita family income may not exceed €17,000 per year.
