Al-Azhar University Scholarship, administered by Al-Azhar University, is one of the funding options available to international muslim students nominated by their home country in Egypt. The award covers includes a full tuition waiver at the assigned Al-Azhar faculty, dormitory accommodation at the Islamic Missions City in Cairo, a monthly living allowance, and a no-cost preparatory year in Arabic for students who need it before starting their program. Because placement runs through each home country's own diplomatic nomination quota, the actual number of available seats depends on that country's allocation rather than on individual applicant demand. and is open to pre-university, undergraduate, master's, phd students studying islamic sharia sciences, arabic language, and a range of scientific and theoretical faculties (including medicine, engineering, and pharmacy at select campuses). The scholarship runs for 1-2 years and may be renewed annually based on academic performance. Eligibility is generally based on candidates must be Muslim, hold secondary or higher academic credentials recognized as equivalent to Al-Azhar's own qualifications, and be nominated by a national education ministry or Islamic affairs body rather than applying independently. A medical fitness certificate authenticated by the Egyptian Embassy in the applicant's country is a standard document requirement across national quotas. The application deadline is announced annually on the official scholarship page.
