I did my O level exams in the year 2001 scoring a mean grade of B- which made me loose a chance to campus by a single point.
Since then I’ve done different jobs that saw me through my basic course in business administration.It has been quite hectic due to the long working hours and sometimes no time given by employers to enroll in college also low pay that cannot support my college fee.
I have a burning desire to do take up a degree course and eventually masters in business administration.
Am willing to do any kind of decent jobs and support myself if I can get a scholarship to per sue my dreams.Alternatively if I can get someone who will be willing to grant me employment so I can work and study at the same time from any country I’ll really appreciate.
So far I have good experience in ICT where I have worked as a sales representative for close to three years giving good results.
Am very hardworking and committed to what I do.
My native country is Kenya.

Hence it is my firm motive to study my LL.M (second degree in law)
Though I am interested & able to learn I can’t do this because of my incapacity to pay for the program as I am from Ethiopia which is one from the least developed countries. As a result of this I am forced to turn my face to the international scholarship programs both for my learning as well as living expenses. So I want yours Scholarship Administrator consideration to that effect by stretching its hands to the question I posed. . So, please if you can, inform me the requirements or eligibility criteria’s for such scholarship that I have requested, dates when to be opened for application, and any tasks that I am expected to fulfill to be eligible for it.

We can’t spend money too much in Education. Including me. Most of scholarship program are asking for IELTS , TOFEL and qulified marks. My english is not quite good. If so, may I have a chance to apply scholarship program.

Dear Scholarship Providers,
My names are Hanson Claude B.M. I am 20years old, from Cameroon.
What’s more, I have crowned a diploma for G.C.E. “O” LEVEL after finishing my Secondary Levels. Again, I also earned a high school credits in Lower 6th(Grade 11). More so, I have commenced an Advanced Level program(Grade 12) and currently taking Geography and other subjects and I shall earn my diploma by August 2009.
That being said, I am kindly soliciting for scholarship to take a part-time course in English Program following this coming Summer, i.e July session. That is to say, my living expenses and English course fee and will I struggle or fend for my flight tickets; then return back to my country to continue schooling, when the English course program finishes (presumably I might go in for my further study in your institution). The acquisition of high quality of English as a Language in the United States would not only be as a service to my country but also, will refined, upgrade and widen my English proficiency.
As I look forward to hearing something from you at your earliest convenience, stay blessed.
Sincerely,
Hanson Claude.

Hello,
My name is Amber Hutcheson. I’ll be a sophomore in the fall with a double major in international studies and business with a minor in spanish. I will also have japanese courses. I’m looking for a scholarship to Japan for one semester. In addition, any scholarships for cultural exchange programs or summer programs in Japan or in any Latin American country would suffice. I’m more interested in going to Japan, but a scholarship to volunteer in a spanish country would suffice as well. Also, I would like to attend a language institute for japanese, spanish, or korean. Thank you soo much for your time!
