About this program

The Musa Dakri program offered twenty-eight scholarships of $2,000 in ISNA’s 2026 cycle. The organization’s own announcement expressly included any field of study and gave April 30, 2026 as the deadline. This makes it a broad academic-field lead for students who meet ISNA’s general conditions, although the verified application period is now closed.

For the next cycle, start with eligibility rather than essay writing. Check your citizenship or residency category, college-entry year, and community involvement against the newly published rules. Keep a dated copy of the official instructions in your records and note the submission confirmation separately from an award decision. A saved program page or account registration does not mean an application has been accepted.

Source note
