The AfSU Umbrella
The AfSU Umbrella brings together the introduction of the AfSU Tuition Centre and its potential for future expansion, as well as how the expansion can help benefit university societies.
The AfSU Umbrella
Through AfSU, your university society can gain multiple benefits and in return you can help grow AfSU and support the work we do. AfSU's growth correlates with university society growth: by expanding and collaborating with one another, AfSU can help support you and your society through the schemes we offer. Our Scholarship Fund will open Fall 2024, with our Bursary Fund being explained below.

Any student enrolled as a tutee in any of our AfSU Tuition Centre locations are eligible for the AfSU Bursary. For university students, your university’s Afghan society must be an official AfSU partner in order to benefit from AfSU services. If your society is not yet part of AfSU we encourage you to let your committees know so that they can be part of AfSU.
What are your goals?
AfSU aims to: (a) support students from an Afghan background in education at GCSE, A-level and university; (b) harmonise the connections between university Afghan societies and the Afghan diaspora by bringing everyone together through education; (c) developing connections and links between the student community and its Alumni and (d) supporting our community through the events/workshops that we host.
