Once a student is found eligible and suitable, they will be given 100 per cent financial support by the university to complete their education and rebuild their lives, it said.
The university is also committed to help them find suitable career opportunities upon course completion, the statement added.
This decision is the latest in a series of social and community initiatives undertaken by IEC University in recent months, it said.
