Qalam wa Lawh’s merit-based Ibn Battuta Scholarship for Peace and Diplomacy gives students from around the world the chance to study for free at Qalam wa Lawh in Rabat, Morocco.
Recipients for the Scholarship are chosen based on their dedication to the study of the Arabic language. Students may choose to apply for a 14-week semester session (fall or spring), or a 4-week session (summer or winter). Qalam wa Lawh awards both full and partial scholarships.
