Scholarship details
Pursuing a degree in Canada is many people’s dream. Especially students from developing countries. However, only a fraction of this population can comfortably afford to apply and study in any college of their choice in Canada. The cost of studying abroad is relatively high for many students thereby making it almost impossible for their study-abroad dreams to come true.
This issue gave rise to the birth of student grants and scholarships from schools, government, and even private sources. These has given hope to many students today. Now, they can sudy abroad for free or just a fraction of the entire cost. One of such opportunies offered to study abroad is the University of Saskatchewan’s International Excellence Awards for students seeking to study in Canada by 2023.
