These meritorious students were at high risk of ending their higher education due to financial hardship. Each scholarship award was for £300 per student, which was equivalent to 30,000 BDT. A priority was given to the disabled students, followed by female and male students. The ratio of this award between the female and male students was60/40.The beneficiaries received their scholarship funds in their bank account and the awards were paid in instalments of 2,500 every month for 12 months. DUAAUK worked in conjunction with the Central DU Alumni Association, a vigorous due diligence checks were in place to ensure that the Scholarship funds were awarded to regular DU students, who complied with their educational commitments and were not involved with any illegal or immoral activities. DUAAUK endeavours to continue with this noble cause and extend its support by offering Educational Scholarship funds to the most deserving students in building a better future.
