Scholarships at DMU Dubai

Academic Merit Scholarships will be offered to Undergraduate students who have achieved high scores in their previous education.

• Students who have completed a Foundation degree at a university other than DMU Dubai are also eligible for this scholarship. Students who have completed the International Year Zero at DMU Dubai will not be eligible for this scholarship and are instead eligible for the International Year Zero progression award.

• Postgraduate students are not eligible for Academic Merit Scholarships.

• All decisions regarding scholarship eligibility are at the discretion of the DMU Dubai Admissions team and/or relevant Subject Head after evaluating scores of individual relevant subjects.

• Those eligible for an Academic Merit Scholarship will receive either a 20%, 25% or 30% discount of their gross tuition fees.

• The value of the Academic Merit Scholarship is dependent on the student’s marks in their previous education.
