Scholarship

The Islamic Center of Minnesota is pleased to announce the availability of scholarships for the academic year 2010-2011. A total of 9 scholarships will be awarded by the ICM Scholarship Committee based on criteria outlined by the donors and the Scholarship Supervisory Committee as designated by the donors.

The overall intent of the scholarship program is to encourage pursuit of higher education, recognize community service and reward academic excellence by members of our youth. In keeping with our goals, therefore, the selection criteria encompass:

1. Superior Academic Achievement

2. Demonstrated Financial Need

3. Service to the Community

In order to be considered for a scholarship award, candidates must submit a completed application form - along with all supporting documents – by the advertised deadline. In addition, they must be legal residents of the state of Minnesota and must be enrolled in or admitted to an accredited institution of higher learning (college, university, etc.) for full-time studies during the application year. We strongly encourage all eligible candidates to apply during this application cycle whether or not they were awarded a scholarship under this program in previous years.
