Couverture OURSE

Financial Aid

Our financial aid program allows any student to manage and secure the budget they need to cover their tuition fees.

The aid is based on the financial means of each family: the greater the financial need, the greater the aid provided.

Depending on your social and financial situation, the Social Services assistant offers you one of the following options:

Social Grants

Social Service grants are given to students experiencing social and personal difficulties in addition to financial constraints.

Interest-Free Loans from USJ

An interest-free loan is provided by USJ to help the student cover a portion of tuition fees.

Repayment is made over a period equal to the years of assistance. The student benefits from a one-year grace period after the expected date of graduation.

Procedure

  1. Go to the following link: usj.edu.lb/servicesocial
  2. Fill out the application form in full and submit all required documents.
  3. Email the 2 PDFs (form and documents) to ss.accueil@usj.edu.lb
  4. The social assistant will contact the student to follow up on the request within 10 working days or less.
  5. An in-person or online interview on Microsoft Teams is held on an appointment basis with the student to provide an answer regarding financial aid or to complete the file if necessary.

Free tuition deferment

Usually, tuition is paid in four yearly installments. The student may ask to split the amount to be paid over 8 to 10 months, if his or her situation justifies it.

Renewal of financial aid

Students who are already receiving assistance (through a social services scholarship or a USJ loan) will benefit, for the 2026–2027 academic year, from the automatic renewal of financial aid for the same program.

The social worker in charge of your file will contact you to update your social situation.

Scholarships from additional donations are granted on a one-time basis and may not be renewed.

To benefit from any form of financial aid, the student must meet the requirements of regular attendance, participation in classes and examinations, and must normally progress by being actively engaged in their studies.
