More Than Scholarships
PASS is building a future where South Sudanese youth can thrive - not just survive.
Our Offer
PASS provides full-ride scholarships to academically qualified, financially disadvantaged South Sudanese youth. Scholarships cover 100% of tuition and a living stipend for the full academic year. This means tuition, room and board, and essential living expenses per student.
The Process
Students apply through a meticulous selection process, submitting certified academic records and demonstrating both merit and need. They must maintain a GPA of 2.8 or higher each year to renew their scholarships.
PASS prioritizes the inclusion of young women and youth from marginalized or displaced backgrounds. A $450 gift pays a full year’s tuition. An additional $600 supports living expenses. Together, it’s a transformative investment, one that opens a door that would otherwise remain shut.
PASS Scholarships cover tuition, fees, books and living allowance for up to four years.
Before You Apply
If you're a South Sudanese student seeking financial support to attend college or technical school - read this carefully before submitting your application to the PASS Scholarship Program.
Fields of Study We Support
Prioritizing Underserved Youth, Especially Girls
PASS scholarships are need- and merit-based. Students who meet all academic requirements but lack the resources to pay for higher education will be prioritized. Because girls are disproportionately excluded from post-secondary education in South Sudan, female applicants will receive special consideration.
Apply Thoughtfully
PASS is the only full-ride college scholarship program in South Sudan. We want to support the students who are ready to work hard and lead their communities forward. If that’s you, we encourage you to apply.
