Scholarships

Merit-based financial assistance includes scholarships awarded by the college. Scholarships are awarded for outstanding academic achievements, although some merit scholarships can be awarded for leadership potential. A cumulative GPA of 3.7 is required to qualify for a scholarship. Contact [email protected] for details.

Financial Aid

Our commitment to breaking economic barriers: As a Muslim college, Zaytuna is an inheritor of a centuries-long tradition that enables and encourages students to pursue knowledge as a right, regardless of economic circumstances. Hence, we have a financial aid policy that removes economic barriers to seeking knowledge by offering any admitted student who cannot afford the cost of education a generous financial assistance package. We also offer merit-based scholarships for qualified students.

Zaytuna College is dedicated to delivery of this highest quality of educational experience to each of its students. Zaytuna College views its financial aid program as an investment in students and their futures. We seek a diverse student body and are committed to ensuring aided students can take full advantage of the Zaytuna experience.

Need-based (Zakat) Financial Assistance: Financial Aid

Need-based financial aid (Zakat) is awarded on the basis of the financial need of the student for undergraduate studies.

Who Qualifies for Zakat?

Anyone that can prove they are not able to pay for a College education. Need-based financial aid for the Summer Arabic Intensive is not governed by GPA since this is a prerequisite program for anyone granted admissions into Zaytuna that cannot test out of Arabic level I. Anyone that is granted need-based aid for undergraduate studies is automatically granted need-based aid for the Summer Arabic Intensive.
To maintain Zakat, a cumulative GPA of 3.0.

Need-based Financial Assistance: Financial Aid-Other

Need-based financial assistance is awarded to students who do not meet the requirements of the merit-based scholarship or who are not qualified for Zakat. Such students can be awarded this third type of financial aid.

The College strives diligently to assist students in securing the funds needed to study at the college. Students may apply for financial assistance by filling out the online financial aid application or seek other private sources of financial assistance.

Admission and financial aid applications must be submitted simultaneously. Continuing students deadline for financial aid is March 15, annually.
