Application Process and Deadline

The application process and deadline for endorsement and funding support will be shared directly with students studying in Abu Dhabi during the spring semester.

Funding Availability

Eligible students may receive a meal and housing allowance, applied as a credit to their bursar account. As funding is limited and competitive, it is not guaranteed. Applicants are required to submit a brief statement outlining their need and qualifications for consideration.

Zero-credit Course

Participants will be enrolled in a zero-credit, online directed study course that complements the internship experience.
