Did you know that there are many fully funded scholarships to study in Arab countries? Probably many of you do not know about these scholarships? For this purpose, I have created a list of Bachelor’s, Master’s and PhD scholarships in Arab countries. Many Arab countries offer fully funded scholarships for international students through their ministries of education or higher education, and some universities also offer fully funded scholarships. You should not ignore scholarships in Arab countries because there are opportunities to study without IELTS and get a fully funded scholarship.
These scholarships will cover your tuition fees, monthly salary, healthcare expenses, and airfare as well. Some of the popular Arab countries that offer scholarships are Morocco, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates. I will list each scholarship with details and a link to the official website. Keep in mind that each scholarship has a different application timeline.
