FOM Scholarship Program

FOM Scholars with US Ambassador Minton
The Friends of Mongolia Scholarship Program was established in the spring of 2006 with the aim of assisting young male students from rural communities with high academic potential and financial need to attend post-secondary institutions across Mongolia. The program specifically stipulated that all applicants be male and living outside of Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia's capital city. The reason for this unique requirement was what is referred to as "Mongolia's reverse gender gap." Often rural males are left behind in education because of social and economic demands in the countryside. In fact, according to the National Statistics on Gender in Mongolia, in 2005 only 39% of students enrolled in institutions of higher education were male. Successful applicants were awarded one-year full tuition scholarships.

Since 2006 the program has grown significantly to include several varieties of scholarships that both males and females are eligible to apply for. The program requires approximately $10,000 per year which comes from a combination of funding sources, including Khan Bank, families, RPCV groups, FOM members, and individual donors. More information about the program is available below.
