About this program
The Shakir award is an ISNA first-year college scholarship. Its 2026 announcement offered ten awards of $2,000. The verified window has ended, so students planning a later entry year should save the program as a future-cycle lead and return to ISNA for new instructions. A past award amount is useful for comparison but should not be entered as committed income in a college budget.
As an application-planning step, record the term in which you expect to begin college and keep a short, factual account of community work. Separate completed service from future intentions. Before requesting recommendations or uploading documents, confirm the next cycle, your admission status, and the provider’s current requirements.
