Scholarship Description
The HAAA Scholarship is open to Arab students interested in pursuing undergraduate studies at Harvard University USA. The Harvard Arab Alumni Association launched the HAAA Scholarship Fund in 2010, the first fund of its kind to be established at Harvard University, with the goal of increasing the number of Arab students.
The Arab world is a very small part of Harvard’s student population. In 2013, 118 students from Arab countries studied at Harvard in all of its colleges and degree programs; this represents less than 2% out of the 4,000 international learners at Harvard. The goal is to put in $10 million in order to assist students from the Arab World who are admitted to any Harvard School.
