Asian University for Women (AUW) Full Scholarship
About this scholarship
The Asian University for Women (AUW) in Chittagong, Bangladesh, is an independent, international institution dedicated entirely to educating women from across Asia and the Middle East. Many of its students are the first women in their families to attend university, and a large share study on full scholarships. AUW’s mission is to develop a new generation of women leaders, and its funding is designed so that financial circumstances are never a barrier to admission.
The full scholarship is genuinely comprehensive. It covers tuition and fees, room and board on campus, books and academic materials, a laptop loan, international travel to and from the university, health services, and career and graduate-school support. The undergraduate programme runs for three years and is taught in English, within a residential community drawn from many countries.
The opportunity is open to women from an Asian or Middle Eastern country who have completed secondary education and can demonstrate academic ability and leadership potential. AUW uses holistic admissions, so there is no minimum standardised test score, and financial need is considered but does not affect the admission decision. You apply online for admission and submit the financial aid application alongside it. For talented young women seeking a transformative, fully funded undergraduate education, AUW is a remarkable opportunity.
