Recently, I’ve been graduated from one of the well-known and reliable universities of Iran with very good results and a perfect grade because of a very good performance on my defend session. I’ve always been a studious student in all of the levels of my educational periods and nowadays I’m teaching different English language courses at the universities, colleges and institutions in my country.
Now, at this level of education, I am so interested to continue my studies and get PhD in this subject of study in one of your universities. Something which is very important for me is taking a scholarship or a study grant that is usually offered to doctoral students. Please help me by giving some information regarding these issues. How and where can I apply the universities in order to take a study grant, salary or a scholarship during my doctoral studies?
Impatiently, I am looking forward to your answer…
