SecureMyScholarship is a Dubai based edtech startup that aims to make higher education accessible and affordable for all students. Through our platform, we connect students with guaranteed scholarships and fee waivers at our partner universities. Our mission is to disburse $100 million in scholarships to students from working class and middle class families, and in the process change the lives of tens of thousands of people around the world. 

SecureMyScholarship, originally launched as a native platform on the Lock&Stock app in 2019, was born as a standalone brand with its own unique platform in November 2021. While our official headquarters is based in Dubai, UAE, our team is global, and the rockstars that are the heart and soul of our organization come from all over the world, including Dubai, India, Australia, Malaysia, Canada and Germany.

All universities listed on SecureMyScholarship provide students with guaranteed fee waivers and scholarships. As of June 2023, we have over 300 universities available on SecureMyScholarship, including 95% of all private universities in Dubai, over a hundred universities in both the US and UK, and many of the world’s largest educational groups such as Navitas, Shorelight, Kaplan and Study Group. 

Aside from helping students secure scholarships for universities around the world, we also offer students end-to-end assistance, from course selection, university selection, application assistance, enrolment confirmation and visa assistance. We also work with third parties to assist students with accommodation and on-ground support once they arrive at their destination. Tens of thousands of students visit SecureMyScholarship.com every month from over 20 different countries.

As of December 2023, we have disbursed $7.7 million in scholarships to more than one thousand students.
