The US Educational Foundation in Pakistan (USEFP) initiative has been scaled back, despite Pakistan’s requests that the US increase the number of scholarships available to Pakistani students.
Director General (Americas) Mudassir Tipu stated that Pakistan is eager to strengthen and expand engagement with the USEFP in order to explore a variety of exciting opportunities for Pakistani students who want to study in the top US universities during their meeting with USEFP Executive Director Rita Bruun Akhter.
He suggested that USEFP look into expanding both the scope of the programme and the amount of scholarships available to Pakistani students.
