Students Financial Aid Office

INTRODUCTION

The Students’ Financial Aid Office (SFAO) was established at the University of Sindh in 2013.
The SFAO operates under the motto that no student should leave the University without earning a degree due to financial hardship.
Consequently, the University of Sindh established a separate Students’ Financial Aid Office (SFAO) to support meritorious and financially needy students through financial assistance provided by the Higher Education Commission (HEC), government scholarships, and other donor agencies.
At present, the Students’ Financial Aid Office (SFAO) is located in the New Administration Block of the University. The office operates under the supervision of Prof. Dr. Mushtaque Ali Jariko and under the patronage of Prof. (Meritorious) Dr. Muhammad Siddique Kalhoro, Vice Chancellor, who firmly believes that no deserving student should be deprived of higher education because of financial constraints.
