The Center for Arab American Philanthropy (CAAP) is committed to investing in the next generation, having awarded more than $2 million since its inception to support students on their academic journeys.

Whether graduating high school or pursuing a doctorate, our scholarships focus on a variety of disciplines and degrees from STEM to healthcare, social sciences to business, and social justice to journalism at universities and colleges across the United States and abroad.

Scholarship awards range from $1,000 to $10,000 with many being renewable each year. Some opportunities depend on demonstrated financial need while others are merit-based. Some are restricted to certain schools and degrees while others are not.

How to Apply

CAAP opens its scholarship applications twice per year in winter and spring to align with the academic calendar.

With multiple scholarships available, we've made the application process easy! First, you will create an account and complete a short eligibility quiz that will automatically match you to the scholarships that are relevant to you. Then, you will be able to submit each application individually. Applications are saved until you submit, so you can work on them, as you wish, between now and the deadline.
