STUDY ABROAD 100% FREE

Many prospective students palnning to study abraod are ignorant of a lot of things. The first ignorance is the choice of country. Some people may disagree with this. If you are from an indigent background, choosing country like the United Kingdom as your choice of study  would really cost you a lot of money especially if you are from an indigent background. The average tuition fee in any UK universities costs about 8,000 pounds excluding accommodation and books.
Some students just want to study abroad, but they do not know which country to choose. If one has a rich parents, then planning to study in the UK would not be a problem at all as the parents can shoulder this burden. But for students who do not have any finanancial back-up, then, it would be a problem choosing the UK except the person would get a scholarship for his studies. But most times, there is hardly full scholarships for undergraduate programmes except masters. Some of the masters scholarship available are OFID (Opec Foundation for International Development) scholarships, Chevening Scholarship among others.
Another problem for indigents students is that the living expenses in the UK is quite expensive than in other parts of Europe. For example, accommodation per week is betwen 300 and 500 pounds per week depending on the location in the UK.

Another thing you need to consider is whether the school you are planning to chhose has some offer in place, like: swcholarships, grants and loan. For example, you can get 100% full study scholarship to fund your fees abroad. Not many prospective or international students know this. If you take foreign exams like: SAT, TOEFL, GRE or GMAT, you could get a preseidential scholarship in the US if you have high score. I have some students who have got this offer and they do not have to pay through their nose to fulfil their study abroad dreams. It may also interest you to know that you can study in approved universities in USA 100% free. it sounds unbelievable, but it is absolutely true. Some students planning to study courses like: Music, Engineering, Paiting, etc, can get free tution.

Apart from all these, even if you have chosen a university which school fees is relatively high, you can either request for a loan, student's grant or get a foundation scholarship to make your dream of studying abroad a reality. International organizations and philantropists like: UNESCO, Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, OPEC, McCharty Foundation, Ford Foundation, Rockerfeller Foundation, Pepsi, Tata and host of other have foundation in place for students. But sometimes if you are ignorant of the time of the this offers are oened and the opportunities available, you will not get them. But one thing is that scholarships are usually given to exceptionally intelligents students. the aim of such scholarship is to encourage them to go to school instead of wasting their talent by staying at home instead of fees to pursue their dreams. But most importantly, some foundations or organizations supports indigent and intelligents students. In most cases, such prospective students should state their need for the scholarship by writing a motivation letter and should do that at the earliest time before the application closes.

The other opportunities available for scholarship offer is the school and other foundation. To know, you just need tto find out or better still contact us. Why wait at home wasting yout precious time because you do not have the money to study abraod why some organization can pay for you! Take a step today and make hay while the sun shine.
