Saudi Ministry of Higher Education's offer to subsidize students

Riyadh, April 09, SPA -- The Ministry of Higher Education of the
Kingdom of Saudi Arabia today explained that its offer to subsidize
students on private post-graduate scholarships in British
universities according to the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques
scholarships program is confined to students currently present in the
British territories.

In a statement, the Ministry said today that only Saudi students
currently doing their masters, doctorate degrees or medical
fellowships in British universities will benefit from the program not
later than April 7, 2009.

The ministry drew the attention to the fact that the two-days-ago
deadline was designed to the interest of applicants as the vacancies
in British higher educational institutions allocated for Saudi
students were limited given the big number of applicants.
