The APA scholarship was originally created with
a $3000 grant from Dr. Nadi, president of the APA. The purpose
of the scholarship was to attract and encourage Afghan female
students across the United States for advanced studies in areas
in their interest. The applicants were placed in a designed
contest based on which three students with the highest GPAs
would win $1000 scholarship
funds among the contestants. The scholarship was designed for
female students specifically to disprove rumors against the
APA as being pro-Taliban.
This scholarship
was created in 1997 for one time only, in which three female
students, two from the west coast and one from the east coast
won. It is our desire to make this scholarship available to
the best and brightest students, male and female alike, across
the USA and Europe in the future. Your financial help in this
regard will be greatly appreciated. Your financial assistance
will directly be added to the APA scholarship fund if you would
wish so.
