USA:The Falak Sufi Scholarship At New York University

Falak Sufi was born in Pakistan in 1983. She possessed a generous heart, the urge to engage with and change the world, and a brilliantly original, vivacious mind. She graduated from the National University of Singapore with first class honors in Political Science. While young, she began to publish the work that showed her great gifts and talent. Among her interests were women and gender in South Asia, the historiography of this region, and the strength of the humanities. However, no list can capture the range of subjects about which she thought, spoke, and wrote. She was a much beloved, deeply admired graduate student in Near Eastern Studies at the Kevorkian Center when she died tragically in New York in 2008.

The Falak Sufi Scholarship is to honor her memory and to support students from countries with a majority Islamic population in South Asia who might not otherwise be able to obtain a graduate
education. These students, preferably female, will be enrolled in the two-year master’s program in Near Eastern Studies.


The holders of this scholarship should embody the intellectual spirit and promise of Falak Sufi, and possess a deep and abiding commitment to the role of women in academia and to the questions that she explored, primarily the study of gender in the countries of the Near East, Middle East, and/or South Asia with a majority Islamic population.

Amount of Scholarship

For 2011–12, the scholarship includes an academic-year stipend (a minimum of $23,046), tuition, student health insurance, registration and service fees for up to two years, provided that academic standards of the Graduate School and the program are met

How to apply

Application information for all potential students to the Masters program in Near Eastern Studies can be found at http://gsas.nyu.edu/page/grad.admissionsapplication.html. The online application for admission is also the application for all Graduate School financial aid. No additional forms are required. If an applicant explicitly wishes to be considered for a Falak Sufi Scholarship, that person should add one paragraph to the application’s “Statement of Purpose” explaining how the candidate meets the criteria for the scholarship and how the award will enable the candidate to pursue graduate education. The application deadline for Fall 2011 admission is January 4, 2011.

Questions about the Falak Sufi Scholarship should be directed to gsas.dean@nyu.edu
