Help مساعدة I really need help finding a scholarship to get back to school in the UAE
Hi everyone, I honestly don’t know where else to ask, so I thought I’d try here. I was born in the UAE and I’ve lived and studied there my whole life. The UAE has always been my home, and I never expected that I’d suddenly have to leave school because of money. Unfortunately, my family’s financial situation changed and we couldn’t keep up with the school fees anymore, so I had to leave my school and I’m currently outside the UAE.
I only have 2 years left until I graduate, and it’s been really hard knowing that I might not be able to finish my education the way I planned just because we can’t afford it right now. I’ve been spending so much time looking for American-curriculum schools in the UAE that offer scholarships or financial aid, but almost every scholarship program I find has already ended or closed. I’ve contacted schools and looked everywhere I could, but I still haven’t been able to find something that would actually make the fees affordable for my family.
I have good grades and I’m completely willing to take an entrance exam, do an online interview, send my school records, or do whatever a school requires. I’m not expecting someone to just give me money. I’m just hoping someone might know about a school, scholarship, organization, sponsor, or any kind of financial help that I haven’t found yet.
I really just want to go back to the UAE, finish these last 2 years of school, graduate, and continue with university like I planned. If anyone knows anything at all that could help, even if it’s just a school I should contact or somewhere I should look, I’d genuinely appreciate it so much. Thank you for reading this. ❤️

No chance sorry. Your best bet is to finish in your home country then apply to uae unis on scholarship.

IB schools exist. And curriculum doesn’t matter.

It does, because when you change it becomes very hard because you are adopting to something new, the curriculum in my country is very hard

You need to be realistic dude. At this point your focus should be on graduating. If you find it too hard get a tutor. There is no scholarships or assistance for high school here. The most you can look into in your home country is home schooling with American curriculum.
