The scholarship will be provided to the students enrolled in undergraduate degree programs enrolled in HEC-recognized USAID partner universities.

Recent floods in Pakistan have caused unprecedented damage to the infrastructure and livelihood of people in millions. Continuations of higher education for the students of universities who belong to flood-affected districts are on the verge to drop out due to the non-availability of financial resources.

The Program will provide scholarship funding for two semesters to ease the financial difficulty of flood-affected students in thirty partner universities.
