Bonjour. Je suis ivoirien, nouveau bachelier série D, je souhaiterais avoir la chance d’aller poursuivre mes études à l’étranger. En réalité, le système publique universitaire dans mon pays ( La Cote D’Ivoire) est très défaillant au point que seulement les personnes aisés peuvent achéter le privé pour leurs enfants. Vous pouvez vérifier cette information par vos propres investigations. Je peux évoluer dans tous les domaines relativement à ma catégorie de baccalauréat ( BAC D). Je vous prie de bien vouloir avoir un penchant pour ma requète. Merci

I am an Ethiopian having LLB with CGPA of 3.57. Currently I am in Oromia institute of justice and professionals training and research center as a trainee. I also have another BA degree in foreign language and literature (English Education) together with six years of teaching experience from elementary to preparatory classes. Yet I want to upgrade my educational level to second degree (LLM) or any second degree related to my field of study Because I strongly want to play a role in solving the problem in the administration of justice up on returning to my country. But I could not upgrade my qualification to LLM due to shortage of money. Because I used my resources exhaustively being a family man snatching from the mouths’ of my kids during my first degrees study. Therefore, I couldn’t stretch my hands farther to help myself. Please would you help me in realizing my dreams?

I am Rev. Josephat Sahani Kaboya aged 39 years, an employee with National Institute for Medical Research (NIMR) at Tabora Research Centre in Tanzania.
I have been working with this Research Institution since 1993 to date as a Senior Laboratory Technologist. In 2001, I completed a two year course of Advanced Diploma in Medical Laboratory Sciences (specialized in Parasitology and Medical Entomology) at the Muhimbili University of health and Allied Sciences (MUHAS) by then was known as Muhimbili University College of health Sciences (MUCHS)
Last year i.e 2008, I was offered a place to pursue MSc -Research/PhD in Biomedical Sciences (Biology of Cancer) in the school of Biomedical Sciences at the University of Liverpool, UK.
I tried to look for scholarship/sponsorships but I didn’t get any assistance financially. This year (during this academic year 2009/2010) the Liverpool school authority has nominated me again to pursue the same course.
I therefore, ask you to assist me financially to meet the school required tuition fee (pounds 12,000), bench fee (pounds 3,000.
Bench fee in years 2-4 will be ponds 6,000 = pounds 18,000.
The course is of 4 years and this offer is a conditional one (i.e. it depends on the availability of funds) Also, the course commences on 21st September,2009
I hope that, my financial request will be considered as this course is very important not only to me but also to my institute (NIMR), country and the World at large.
Thanks and God bless you forever.
