Sharakah
As part of the university's community engagement strategic initiative, AUS introduced the Sharakah program to foster partnerships with select schools in the UAE. Through Sharakah, AUS engages school teachers and students by offering a wide range of events, activities and programs, from teacher workshops and training, to academic events and sports competitions for students, as well as sponsorship for school publications and events. Additionally, AUS offers exclusive scholarships for students from the Sharakah partners schools.
Our special relationship has proven to be exceedingly popular with schools and students throughout the Emirates.
Read on to find out more about what Sharakah has to offer your students and your school.
Events
The Sharakah program offers a wide variety of activities for high school students and teachers from our partner schools. Our past events range from educational initiatives like the math competition MathFest and our celebration of physics at FUNtastic FZX, to our annual Sharakah Sports Festival and more. We also help students get ready for placement tests through our study skills workshops and offer training programs that support teachers in their professional development.

What the Students Say
Scholarships
Scholarship Information for School Counselors
As a Sharakah partner school, you are invited to nominate students from your school to be considered for a Sharakah scholarship offered by AUS. We are very happy to extend this opportunity to your school and hope that it will enhance your efforts in supporting your distinguished and deserving students who are interested in joining AUS. Find out more about the scholarship and grant opportunities available to your students who qualify.
Your school can select/nominate one of your exceptional AUS applicants to receive a Sharakah School Scholarship named after your school. This scholarship covers 45 percent remission on tuition, lab fees and on-campus housing (sharing room for women and men; single and double for men only). To be eligible, applicants must be evaluated by an established school committee, within the following guidelines:
- demonstrated outstanding personal qualities and leadership abilities in school and the community
- have made scientific or literary contributions to his/her local community
- received special honors or awards for community service and school extracurricular activities
- achieved a minimum high school average equivalent to 90 percent and above in either (1) at least two of the last three years or (2) final year of secondary education
a) Every Sharakah School can select/nominate one student for a Sharakah School Scholarship (nominated applicants should have applied to AUS and received an AUS ID number eg.@0000... )
b) Sharakah Schools must form a committee to finalize their selection/nomination and send the applicant’s information by completing a digital form. To receive the digital form, please send your request to [email protected].
c) The recommended applicant named by the school will be awarded the scholarship in writing and must accept it by the established AUS deadline.
d) The awarded applicant will not be eligible for a financial grant or merit scholarship in addition to the Sharakah School Scholarship.
- Other Grants and Scholarships Available
AUS offers the opportunity for a university education to those who have the necessary talent and commitment, but perhaps not the finances. Two out of three students at AUS receive grants and scholarships each year. For more information on the range of scholarships and grants available to qualifying students, please click here.
Within established guidelines, AUS will work to help financially challenged students from your school who are interested in joining the university. To help us in this regard, we would truly appreciate your support in sharing information about our scholarship and grant opportunities to interested parents and students.
We are happy to work collaboratively with you on cases that require special consideration. We encourage you to connect directly with the Office of Financial Grants and Scholarships to discuss the cases of applicants who have special circumstances.
