This Education Portal was established to facilitate asnaf students—Fakir, Miskin, and Muallaf—who are registered with Lembaga Zakat Selangor (MAIS) in submitting applications for the Higher Education Scholarship Assistance (HESA), Preparatory Assistance for Entry into Higher Education Institutions, and First-time Pocket Money Assistance online. This portal continues the implementation of educational sponsorships that were previously processed manually through LZS branches since the introduction of these aids.
