If
you're a Pakistani student dreaming of studying abroad without the financial
burden, here’s some great news: the HEC Moroccan Government Scholarship 2025-26
is now open for applications. Whether you’re aiming for a Bachelor’s, Master’s,
or PhD degree, this fully funded opportunity allows you to pursue higher
education in Moroccan universities with all major expenses covered.
In a
world where many scholarships are limited by tough competition or financial
gaps, this one stands out because it’s government-funded, open to a wide range
of academic fields, and doesn’t require applicants to worry about tuition,
accommodation, or even meals. That’s a rare combination.
Let’s
break it all down so you can decide if this is the opportunity you’ve been
waiting for—and how to prepare your application before the deadline on 12th
June 2025.
What Is the HEC Moroccan Government Scholarship?
This
scholarship is a partnership between the Moroccan Agency of International
Cooperation (AMCI) and Pakistan’s Higher Education Commission (HEC). It allows
eligible Pakistani and AJK nationals to study in Moroccan public universities
at no cost, across a wide range of fields—from engineering and medicine to
social sciences and agriculture.
The program is open for students at all three major levels of study:
- Undergraduate (Bachelor’s)
- Graduate (Master’s)
- Doctorate (PhD)
So,
whether you’re just finishing high school or already have a degree and are
looking to continue, this could be your way into an international education
experience.
What Does the Scholarship Cover?
This
is a fully funded package, which means your essential academic and living costs
are taken care of. Here’s what selected students can expect:
- Full tuition fee waiver at Moroccan public universities
- Monthly stipend to cover basic living expenses
- Free accommodation in student housing
- Three meals per day
- Medical insurance
- Support from the Moroccan government throughout your studies
This
is not just an academic scholarship—it’s a life-enriching experience that
removes the cost burden so you can focus entirely on learning and growth.
Fields of Study Available
Almost
all major academic disciplines are available, including:
- Medicine and Health Sciences
- Engineering and Technology
- Agriculture and Environmental Sciences
- Business, Economics, and Management
- Arts, Humanities, and Social Sciences
- Islamic Studies and Arabic Literature
Courses
are taught mostly in French, although some fields—such as Arabic literature or
Islamic studies—are taught in Arabic.
If
you’re not already fluent in French, don’t worry. A mandatory language upgrade
course is provided during your first year to help you reach the required
proficiency. But do note: failing or repeating this course is not allowed, so
early language preparation is encouraged.
Who Can Apply?
This
opportunity is open to Pakistani and AJK nationals only. To qualify, you must
meet the following criteria:
Undergraduate applicants must:
- Be aged 19 to 23 years
- Have at least 12 years of education (FSC or A-Levels)
Master’s applicants must:
- Hold a 16-year degree in a relevant field
PhD applicants must:
- Hold at least 18 years of education

- Must meet the academic and language requirements of the Moroccan university
- Must be in good physical and mental health, with a medical certificate confirming no infectious diseases (like HIV or hepatitis)
- Should not have been previously suspended or removed from Morocco for any legal or disciplinary reason
Dual
nationals are not eligible, and all applicants must commit to starting their
program in September or October 2026.

While
you don’t need to upload these documents at the first stage, shortlisted
candidates will be required to submit:
- Signed copy of the HEC online application form
