Urgent Non-Qatari Student Sponsorship
Hello, I'm a non-Qatari student who has been born and raised in Doha for all my life. I have recently been admitted to a Qatar Foundation University. Because of family reasons and in need of financial support, I am looking for a company to sponsor me while I study at university here in Qatar. i have heard that it's hard for foreigners to recieve sponsorships from companies like Qatar Airways, AlJazeera, Ooredoo, etc. as they require sponsored students to be from a Qatari family. But, it isn't impossible for a foreigner to be sponsored as I have close friends who are sponsored through close family businesses or relatives.
If anyone has any information or companies they know that sponsor non-Qataris, please contact me as this is quite urgent. Thank you in advance.
I wonder will the Financial Aid be valid if you become a sponsored student? In that case, your Company that is sponsoring your education will have to pay the amount in full... i think you need to check this foremost.
Ani_chy thank you for your reply, yes I have applied for financial aid through my university and spoken to the Financial administrator. All is good in this area but I am looking for a sponsor for the sole purpose of being guareented a job straight after graduation. Can't risk falling into debt with repayment to a university!
I would advise to approach the QF Financial Aid office, you could be funded during your study time with your university, and then you can repay them post your graduation. Have you tried that option out?
