The Scholarship Fund was established in 1985 and since then has
helped many young Lebanese to pursue post graduate studies and
training in the UK giving them an opportunity to acquire skills and
experiences not available in Lebanon.
Scholarships are currently offered in partnership with the Said
Foundation. At present, the BLA Fund provides two or three full or
partial scholarships a year to eligible graduates wishing to pursue a
Masters degree in the UK. The scholarships are intended for those
normally unable to afford a full time Masters course in the UK and
scholars with the declared intention of returning to the Lebanon to
use their additional qualification to the country’s benefit will be
given priority.
Applications for
2018 - 2019 are
now open
The BLA is pleased to
announce its special
relationship with
Durham University
and would encourage
applicants seeking a
particularly warm
welcome at one of the
highest ranking
universities in the UK
to apply for master’s
courses here.
