The UAE funds Emirati students to study at the world's top-ranked universities. To win a place, you must first be admitted to an approved university in an approved major — and that is exactly what we help you secure.
Get help with your admission →The UAE scholarship is built around a published list of top-ranked universities and priority fields — chosen to match the country's future needs.
The Ministry approves universities based on global rankings — you must be admitted to one on the list.
Admission chances are higher in priority fields such as STEM, AI, health sciences and energy.
The approved list of universities and majors is refreshed annually — always use the latest version.
Scholarship applications are submitted online using your UAE Pass digital identity.
Government scholarships are aimed at UAE nationals, for undergraduate and postgraduate study. You will typically need a strong academic record, the required English-language score, and admission to an approved university and major. Several bodies also run their own schemes alongside the Ministry.
Alongside the Ministry, other bodies run their own scholarships — including the Scholarship Office at the Ministry of Presidential Affairs, ADEK in Abu Dhabi, and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Each has its own approved list and conditions.
