Dear Brothers,

as-Salaam 'alaykum wa rahmatullaahi wa barakaatuh,

A number of scholarships are available yearly at King Fahd University of Petroleum and Minerals, Dhahran, Saudi Arabia ( www.kfupm.edu.sa ) for B.Sc. holders interested in Masters (M.Sc.) and M.Sc. holders interested in Doctorate (PhD) degrees.

Engineering - Architectural, Construction Engineering and Management, Civil, Computer, Electrical, Mechanical, Chemical, Petroleum, Aeronautics (Mechanical), Telecommunication (Electrical), Computer Networks (Computer)

Science - Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, Earth Science (Geology, Geophysics), Computer Science, Medical Physics (Physics), Environmental Sciences, City and Regional Planning

Management - Accounting, Business Administration

[For other courses, one may try King Saud University: www.ksu.edu.sa]

Requirements:
1. B.Sc. GPA about 3.0/4.0 (3.75/5.0, 5.25/7.0)
2. Good score in GRE ( www.ets.org/gre ) $160 / $190
3. Good score in TOEFL (www.ets.org/toefl ) About $170

Deadlines (for the current session, should be similar in future sessions):
1. Aoril 15 for September admission same year (Fall)
2. October 21 for February admission following year (Spring)
[I realize the deadline for the Fall application is perhaps too close, so please forgive me for the late information but perhaps, anyone interested could start the process for Spring admission insha'Allah.]

Religious Benefits:
1. Opportunity to live in a Muslim country, amongst the Muslims where the law of the Land is based upon Islam. Alhamdulillaah.

what about sisters :(

I know it is always an issue for sisters as they are not suppose to travel without mahram...if you can get your mahram to company you,i guess things will be fine.

Anyway is there any scholarship for revert sisters with mahram to study Islam in SA?I heard thsi some time a go and no one confirmed it is true.Just wondering if someone could help me to confirm that scholarship.
