Emirates Academy of Hospitality Management Merit Scholarship

The Emirates Academy of Hospitality Management (EAHM) in Dubai is one of the region's leading hospitality schools, delivering English-taught Bachelor's degrees in hospitality and tourism management with strong links to the Jumeirah luxury-hotel group and the global hospitality industry. EAHM awards merit scholarships that reduce tuition for talented international applicants, assessed on academic record and motivation for the field. For Sri Lankan students drawn to hotels, tourism, and events, EAHM offers paid internship exposure inside a major luxury hospitality ecosystem, an English-medium curriculum, and a Dubai location that is both a top tourism market and close to home. Tuition at a specialist private school is significant, so the merit reduction matters. Scholarship bands and internship arrangements vary by intake, so confirm the current award, eligibility, accreditation, and deadlines with EAHM admissions before applying.

Looking for a scholarship because of the cost?

Then start here instead. Scholarships are competitive, usually partial, and decided by someone else — they are the least reliable way to make studying abroad affordable. Your destination and course choice move the number far more, and both are entirely within your control.
