Lutfia Rabbani Foundation invites applications to its Mahmoud S. Rabbani Scholarship for the 2021-2022 academic year.
The Mahmoud S. Rabbani Scholarship is named in honor of the founder of the Lutfia Rabbani Foundation. It is intended for Arab students who have been officially accepted into a Master’s or Ph.D. program in the Netherlands or for Dutch students who have been accepted into a Master’s or Ph.D. program in the Arab World.

In keeping with the foundation’s mission, all areas of study are eligible for the grant, and the primary requirements are that applicants must have a firm grasp of English or the language their program will be in.
