USAID · AMERICAN UNIVERSITY OF BEIRUT — $44.0M (LBN)
Key claim: USAID obligated $44.0 million to the American University of Beirut for the Higher Education Scholarships Program (HES) in Lebanon.
Abstract
Agency for International Development obligated $44.0M to AMERICAN UNIVERSITY OF BEIRUT, for work in LBN. HIGHER EDUCATION SCHOLARSHIPS PROGRAM (HES)
Why this matters
The $44.0M HES obligation is one of the larger single-country higher-education scholarship commitments in this vault, anchoring USAID’s education-diplomacy footprint in Lebanon through a flagship private university. Tracking this recipient-program pairing helps distinguish country-specific scholarship vehicles from global exchange platforms like Fulbright and IVLP.
