Financial hardship may hinder students from continuing their academic progress. Through the provision of educational grants and case-based student loans, the Foundation seeks to alleviate such concerns. Most of these forms of assistance are granted on an honorary and non-repayable basis. Students make a moral commitment that, upon graduation and employment, they will voluntarily reimburse the received amount by depositing it into the Foundation’s bank account (No. 42504700) at Tejarat Bank under the name of the Ferdowsi University Supporters Foundation, so that the funds may be used to support other students.
Student loans are generally provided interest-free and must be repaid to the Foundation no later than the completion of the student’s studies.
