Rumi Organization for Research is delighted to announce the fourth phase of providing free Duolingo vouchers to Afghan girls and boys. Up to date, nearly 450 vouchers were provided to Afghans and this time, we are on mission to support EVERY single eligible applicant with a free voucher. These vouchers will enable Afghans to take the Duolingo English examination free of charge.

  • The Rumi Organization for Research has compiled a set of materials to aid Afghan men/women in preparing for the Duolingo examination. Tutorials have been made available for public perusal, viewing, and practice, with the aim of achieving the highest possible score on the test. These tutorials can be accessed via the link https://rumi.af/tuts. You need to have a strong connection to download the .zip files. You also need to use computer to download the files becasue of their large size. It is a great idea to download them using a download manager software such as 'Internet Download Manager.'

    The deadline for sending an application was 1 August 2024. If you do not hear back from us by the 3rd of August 2024, it indicates that your application was unsuccessful. We only contact successful applicants. If you need a Duolingo voucher for any purpose, please feel free to apply in the upcoming round. We provide Duolingo vouchers even to school graduates who want to pursue an undergraduate degree for the upcoming application cycle or are applying for any other scholarship.

    Please bear in mind that sending an application does not automatically qualify you for a voucher; you must meet our requirements. Using AI tools to respond to the below inquires, such as ChatGPT, automatically disqualifies you. Please be yourself; your own writing matters. You are forbidden to use even Grammarly. We strictly adhere to this regulation that any tool usage, even asking a friend for help, disqualifies you both from receiving a voucher and being nominated for a graduate scholarship. We love to see you excel in acquiring knowledge and assist you; therefore, strictly following the regulations mentioned is a pivot step to success from our lens.

    Please note that you need to be ready to apply. We really do not expect you to send us an application instantly after seeing the 'call for applications.' We want you to take your time, prepare well using the tutorials we provided, take as must practice tests as possible, and then one or two days close to the deadline, apply. If you are not prepared and are applying without maintaining a score of AT LEAST 130 in the result interval of the Duolingo practice test, we will not consider your application at all. Additionally, please upload a FULL screen screenshot of your Duolingo practice test result taken AFTER June 12, 2024. We select the top scorers after they take the real Duolingo test and will introduce them to one of our partner organizations for a chance to study for a graduate degree outside of Afghanistan. Number of scholarships varies. At this stage, we intentionally do not leak out more information. Non-compliance with the mentioned guidelines will render us unable to grant you a free voucher nor graduate scholarship. To reiterate, successful voucher applicants who achieve a high score on the Duolingo test will be nominated for graduate scholarships.

    Please note the meaning of 'a score of AT LEAST 130.' This means that after taking a demo test, your score must fall within one of the following ranges: 130-135, 130-140, 130-145, 130-150, 130-155, or 130-160. We do not accept any application with a score below 130; such applications are automatically rejected without notification. We advise you to use our provided materials for thorough practice and preparation. Before submitting your application, take as many free demo tests as possible, and attach your highest score.
