The USAID Higher Education Scholarship Program (HES) aims to provide undergraduate scholarships to promising public and private high school students and technical school graduates from all governorates of Lebanon. Student beneficiaries will experience LAU’s high/rigorous academic standards and a campus environment that promotes social equality and critical thinking. Moreover, it is mandatory for all students to engage in volunteer work, attend leadership and career workshops, and complete internships to complement their academic studies.
