The Sukhtian Foundation Performing Arts Scholarship


The Amman Institute of Performing Arts (AIPA) is pleased to announce the Sukhtian Foundation Performing Arts Scholarship for drama and dance.

For entry in February 2026, the scholarship will support one dedicated and talented dance student. It will cover full tuition for AIPA’s Contemporary Dance Program, a structured three-year program for aspiring dancers, consisting of four hours of training per week, and focused on developing strong technique, performance skills, and creative growth.

The scholarship is also available to students applying to our Drama Program. Please note that drama candidates have already been selected for this scholarship cycle. New drama applicants will be considered for entry in September 2026. We encourage interested students to stay tuned for upcoming announcements.



Eligibility Criteria


The dance scholarship is open to students aged 13 to 30 who are Jordanian citizens or have at least one Jordanian parent. 


Previous dance experience is not required, but applicants must show a strong willingness to commit to the
Contemporary Dance Program. We encourage passionate young individuals to apply, especially those ready to commit to the full three-year program and who may face financial challenges in joining the program.
