American University in Cairo ( AUC ) offered new and varied scholarships to many Egyptian and international students this semester. About 64 new students joined the university through scholarships.
More than 500 students are already studying at the university through scholarships.

A wide range of students benefit from these new AUC scholarships, especially those with special needs as well as international and governmental school students who are seeking to study abroad.

Sama Abd El Hamid, a 1st-year student in the political science department, said that her life changed because she received Dr. Hamza El-Kholy’s scholarship for governmental schools. Her dream is to provide education that is more accessible for people with special needs in Egypt.

Two visually impaired students were supported in this semester through the Qaderoon Scholarship, which is provided by Misr El-Kheir Foundation in partnership with Sawiris Foundation for Social Development; the foundation provides full financial support to students with motor-auditory and visual impairments.

The aim of the scholarship is to integrate students into university life and provide them with special educational opportunities that enable them to obtain quality education and better employment opportunities.

“The best thing you can do with your money is to invest it in education because education is boundless,” said Manar Khair, a 1st-year journalist studying under the Qaderoon Scholarship.

“I am very excited to eventually work on AUC TV, and I want to use my voice as a tool for change in the community,” Khair said.

In addition, AUC ‘s Centennial Scholarships Fund provides full or partial support to Egyptian and international students with outstanding academic qualifications and those in need of financial support.

Farah Awad, a first-year student at the university said, “The Centennial AUCScholarship Fund helps me realize my academic dreams and encourages me to study more and continue to earn the highest grades to retain the scholarship over the next few years.”

In order to promote and encourage liberal education and to benefit from the university’s efforts to attract international students, the Liberal Arts Studies Scholarship was launched; the university provides partial and full support to students from Egypt, the region and the United States studying humanities or social sciences. In addition, some scholarships have been offered to support specific studies in particular colleges.

Other grants offered to Egyptian students include the Egyptian Refining Company’s Public Schools Scholarship, which is awarded to students from public schools in El-Matareya, El-Khosous or East Shubra El-Kheima (Mostorod).

It supports students to pursue their studies in any of the disciplines of science, technology, engineering and mathematics offered by the university. The 4th group of students joined these two scholarships this fall.

The Hadhramout Foundation Scholarship provides Yemeni students with undergraduate and postgraduate studies in support of academically outstanding Yemeni students wishing to obtain a bachelor’s or postgraduate degree at the university.

For American students, the David Bondermann Travel and Learning Fund is responsible for the costs of undergraduate, graduate, or study abroad at the university.

Noteworthy, Pondermann is a graduate of the Center for Arab Studies Abroad in 1969.

These new scholarships not only encourage international students to study here at the university, but also aim to support university students to study outside Egypt, such as the Nancy and Jonathan Wolf Scholarship Study abroad for students wishing to study at the University of Central Florida, USA.

International graduate students studying Egyptology can apply for the Bernard and Lisa Siles Fellowship in Egyptology; it is also available to Egyptian students.
