Establishment of the Scholarship

Nazarat Taleem Sadr Anjuman Ahmadiyya Rabwah in its letter dated September 17, 2013 informed the Association that Hazrat Khalifatul Masih (aba) has graciously approved the proposal of Talim ul Islam College Alumni Association USA to establish a scholarship fund to help talented and needy Ahmadi students seeking higher education in Pakistan. Hazrat Khalifatul Masih (aba) specifically approved for the Association to raise $15000 per year for 10 years minimum to fund this scholarship.

Types of Awards

1. Talim-ul-Islam College Alumni Association USA Educational Loan Fund

$7500 are allocated each year towards this fund to provide loans to needy and talented students enrolled in professional degree courses. The loan may be awarded one time or in multiple installments until the comple-tion of the course or degree. The students who benefit from this loan are expected to return the loan within three to six years after completing their education. Hence, this fund will continue to grow perpetually and more students in coming years will be able to benefit from this fund.
