Hi admin and people, I want to ask some few questions, please help me.
ReplyDelete1) Regarding the co-curricular and leadership qualities that they are looking for, I have only an average of the co-curricular and leadership performance. How was yours? Did you possess good qualifications and achievements?
2) Do they seriously look upon into these co-curricular and leadership qualities?
3) Did you bring supporting documents of the co-curricular and leadership qualities? What kind of documents need to bring?
4) Would you share me some tips to construct the essay on "Why I want this scholarship"?
(If it was asked during your time)
Please do share with me any tips to get this scholarship, from any part like before applying, during interview and etc. Thank you so much dear people and admin! I hope you can help me!
