ABOUT THE MSSF

Amideast’s own MENA Scholarship Support Fund (MSSF) makes the dream of study in the United States possible for highly qualified students from underserved populations in Yemen. Through this initiative, Amideast identifies students of exceptional accomplishment and promise who wish to pursue undergraduate study at an American college or university but cannot afford to do so. Selected students will receive academic mentorship and guidance through the U.S. college and university application process.

Amideast’s Tawtheef modules are clustered into five core areas. Each skill area consists of four to seven training modules. Each training module includes one to four training activities. Additionally, there are 2 orientation modules that must be completed before starting any of the modules in these five skill areas.
