Closed Create a Shariah-compliant Alternative Student Finance Option

Closed on

Introduce Alternative Student Finance for those who are unable to take out the traditional interest-bearing student loan

For over 10 years, successive governments have proposed a Sharia-compliant student finance option for thousands of Muslims who are unable to study due to the lack of funding options. We believe so much potential is going to waste and many people are missing out on obtaining a higher education.

We believe it’s been talked about for too long and that it’s now time for the Government to make this happen and open up the opportunity for many people who could benefit from this finance option.
