U.S. Funding Sources
Studying abroad has become a significant component of the U.S. higher education journey, offering valuable experiences. However, the financial burden associated with studying abroad can pose challenges for students. Recognizing this, we have collected a list of scholarships and resources for students aiming to study in the Middle East and hopefully at Noor Majan.
Foreign Language and Area Studies Fellowship (select universities)
Boren Scholarship and Fellowship
Student Internship Program
Noor Majan believes that all students should be able to afford a study-abroad experience. Over the years, we have worked to promote external funding sources to students and offer our own. Many of our students have studied with us with support from public and private funding options in their countries.
During the summer of 2023, Noor Majan offered its first-ever summer student internship program, which offered students a 50% tuition scholarship for the summer I session (June–August). The two positions are designed to give students a chance to support Noor Majan’s digital presence through either photography or video blogging. We hope to offer this opportunity to prospective students again in the future. Please follow our Instagram for updates @nmti_oman.
