As part of its commitment to rural areas of the Sudan, the Ahfad
University for Women waives tuition for a large number of qualified
young women. Costs of these waivers, which are the equivalent of
scholarships, are covered by the University itself and by other
organizations, such as the Sudanese Council of Churches.
The following tables provide the total for all students receiving
tuition waivers in the current academic year and details for students
from three areas of the Sudan — Darfur, Southern and Eastern
regions. Students receiving tuition waivers from the three regions
represent about 20% of the AUW student body. Total enrollment is
just over 5,000 students.
