Scholarships

The university has established a fund for scholarships for non Lebanese candidates residing in foreign countries. The fund is provided with about 100,000 USD per annum.

The scholarships comprise two parts

- a part processed according to internal procedures covering totally or in part tuition and various administrative fees: lodging in the USJ Residence, assurance, residence permit, handling of files, examination fees;

- a part taken care of by the student in the form of a 300 USD per month forfeit to cover the cost of living for a period depending on the number of months for study with a ceiling of 10 months.
Remark: In the framework of an accord with AUF, the residence and living costs are assured by AUF.
