Abstract	At the request of Qatar's Supreme Education Council (SEC), RAND researchers devised a new set of scholarship programs for college-bound Qatari students and proposed the formation of an institute to manage the programs and oversee other post-secondary functions. The suggested system balanced support for local institutions of higher learning with support for students studying abroad and was designed to help Qatar meet specific post-secondary and workforce needs. Within one year, the SEC implemented most of the study's recommendations.
