Dubai Introduces AED 1.1 Billion Scholarship Fund Initiative

Dubai has unveiled an AED 1.1 billion scholarship program aimed at supporting exceptional Emirati graduates from both public and private schools in the emirate.

Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Crown Prince of Dubai, and Chairman of The Executive Council, announced that 100 top-performing students would receive higher education scholarships annually.

The program, set to commence accepting applications in April 2024 for the 2024-2025 academic year through the DubaiNow platform, will adhere to selection criteria outlined by the Knowledge and Human Development Authority (KHDA).

Application windows will align with high school results announcements, accommodating various curriculum timeframes.

This initiative, a component of the recently launched Dubai Social Agenda 33 by Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, aims to provide educational opportunities for Dubai's high-achieving Emirati students, enabling them to pursue higher education at prominent institutions, both domestically and internationally.
