Standardized Tests and Application Fees

The costs of standardized English language exams are often prohibitive for Gazan students. For example:

• TOEFL in Egypt costs USD 205.
• IELTS in Egypt costs USD 155.
• Duolingo English Test costs USD 60 (the only exam available to students online).
• The costs of university application fees can sometimes be waived. If not, fees can range between USD 50 and 150.

Access to the Internet and Resources

Many students lack reliable Internet access, which is crucial for online education and exam preparation. We plan to provide funds for students making use of coworking hubs in Gh4zza and provide eSIMs, giving students access to high-speed internet so they can prepare and take exams without interruption.

Administrative Costs

To keep the program running smoothly, we need funds to support essential administrative tasks, including organizing mentorships and providing student support services.

Contribute to partially-funded scholarships

The program’s goal is to assist students in receiving fully-funded scholarships to universities abroad. While this may not always be the case, the initiative aims to support students who have received partially funded scholarships.
