Amānah · a note on scholarships

If you intend to apply for a scholarship, please do so honestly and only if you genuinely cannot afford the course fee. Scholarship funds are a trust (amānah) from donors who intend to support those in real need. Misuse is a serious matter, and every application is reviewed carefully.
