Scholarship Guidelines and Application

Sofia Alauddin Foundation Scholarship is awarded to low-income student boys, girls, women and men with a history of outstanding academic success and an intent to give back to the community attending different levels of education. The goal of this scholarship program is to award scholarships who would otherwise not have the opportunity to attend the school, college or university of their choice. The factors that we use to determine the eligibility of applicants include level of financial need and scholastic achievement. Due to systemic inequity, policies, and discrimination, the Foundation prioritizes applications. We encourage students from underprivileged families irrespective of gender, religion and location. If you are eligible and would like to apply, please follow: Scholarship Application Form

Students apply through their respective Institute, and the program provides scholarships over two years. Award decisions are made by the Scholarship Committee of the SA Foundation based on the recommendation of leadership of the applicant’s School/College or University.

Scholarship Philosophy

At the SA Foundation, we believe that education should be free, and everyone, regardless of their financial situation, should be able to attend university and pursue their academic goals without added stress or barriers. No one should have to tell their life story to a committee or compete for limited spots when seeking an education.

Unfortunately, this is not the reality, and scholarships are an important tool to access higher education. Therefore, with limited scholarship funding, applications help us assess the financial need and history of academic achievement for each student. We believe all of our applicants are accomplished in their own right and our goal is to support as many students as possible, especially those who might not have the opportunity to attend university otherwise.
