Deadline: March 31, 2024

Applications are open for the Aga Khan Foundation International Scholarship Programme (AKF ISP) 2024-2025. The programme is an opportunity for outstanding scholars from selected countries, who have no other means of financing their studies, to pursue postgraduate education. Established in 1969 by His Highness the Aga Khan, the AKF ISP has supported more than 1,000 students to date.

AKF ISP awards are structured as half grant and half loan – where you need to repay 50 percent of the award amount. Scholarships for Master’s studies are granted for the entire duration of the degree course. For PhD students, scholarships are awarded for the first two years, after which you are expected to find funding from alternative sources.

Award

  • The award covers your tuition fees and living expenses. It does not cover the cost of international travel, clothing, furniture, or living expenses for family members.

Eligibility

To be eligible for an AKF ISP award, you must:

  • have excellent academic records;
  • hold a Bachelor’s degree or equivalent training/professional experience;
  • demonstrate genuine financial need**;
  • construct a thoughtful, reliable, multi-source funding plan**;
  • be admitted to a reputable postgraduate institution***; and
  • have strong leadership potential, professional experience, extracurricular and/or entrepreneurial achievements, and volunteer contributions.

Note: preference is given to young professionals under 30 years of age.

Application

Applications are handled by local units of the Aga Khan Foundation (AKF), Aga Khan Education Services (AKES), or Aga Khan Education Board (AKEB). Liaise with the appropriate country-level entity to request an application form. For example, if you reside in India you must apply via the local office in India, or if you reside in Kenya you must apply via the local office in Kenya. Submit your completed application to the agency from which the ISP application form was obtained. Late or incomplete applications will not be accepted.

Use contact details for the country where you currently live. If a country is not listed below, then the AKF ISP is not available there.
