Tomorrow’s Leaders (TL) supports academically qualified, financially disadvantaged high school graduates in the Middle East and North Africa by providing a four-year academic matriculation, civic education, and leadership development through American accredited institutions in the region.

The program covers university tuition and fees, a study abroad
experience in the U.S., insurance, housing, and monthly allowance. 
Students requiring English preparatory work may be enrolled in one to
two semesters of college preparatory English classes before entering
degree programs.

In addition to receiving undergraduate education, students will benefit from mentoring, career development, internship, and micro-grant opportunities with local civil society, business, and non-governmental organizations and networks.  Facilitated by each host institution, students participate in initiatives throughout their ‎academic program that go beyond the traditional classroom to foster leadership development and encourage civic engagement.
