Proportion of Students Receiving Financial Aid Due to Poverty
A fundamental pillar of BMC’s strategy against poverty is ensuring that financial restrictions do not obstruct students from pursuing higher education. Education is the most potent catalyst for social mobility and poverty eradication. BMC has revolutionized higher education accessibility by establishing an inclusive student support ecosystem. Recognizing that the high cost of medical education often excludes talented individuals from lower socioeconomic backgrounds, BMC integrated profound financial empowerment and holistic pastoral care into its core mission. During the 2025 academic year, an unprecedented about 69% of the BMC Full-Time student body benefited from customized financial aid or scholarships to attend university because of poverty, representing a massive direct educational investment of over SAR 90,000,000 through many initiatives and comprehensive Scholarship Programs.
