ABOUT MSSF

Amideast's MENA Scholarship Support Fund (MSSF) enables highly qualified students from underserved communities in Yemen to pursue undergraduate study in the United States. Through this program, Amideast identifies exceptional students who demonstrate promise but lack the financial means to attend an American college or university.

MSSF provides support to students admitted to U.S. colleges and universities with generous financial aid packages by closing the gap in cost of attendance.

Curriculum Structure

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.
