Which countries in Africa render free education?
In Kenya public schools from the first day in school to the last day in high school is free. However when you are in boarding school you will pay for the upkeep.Public universities by government sponsored students are so cheap for example most fee per year ranges something between 200 to 250 dollars but privately sponsored students can pay even more than 2000 dollars.So yes education in Kenya is pretty cheap, the only problem is that day schools are never well equipped, performs poorly and that means people will be always try to join boarding schools which can be expensive to some people.At the same time international private schools can charge more than 20,000 dollars a year. Those can only be afforded by who is who in the society, businessmen, government officials, diplomats and some expatriates.Generally public schools in Kenya is so bad, if you can afford private schools the better.
What will 10 US dollars buy for someone living in South Africa?
Just to clarify. I'm not saying that $10 dollars is sufficient to live by in a month in South Africa. This is for a potential project that will sponsor female south africans living in poverty. Although $10 a month is not much, projects start out small and eventually grow. Hopefully $10 (~75 rand) is enough to buy some sanitary pads, educational supplies, and bit of food to help girls go to school. I would appreciate the support.
How did African Americans work to gain a higher education?
They had to get good grades in school to get a full tuition scholarship since most of their families could not afford the tuition.
How do I get sponsors for my child living with me in Africa?
It is important to answer this question within the correct backdrop. To that extent, you have to realize, first of all, that Africa is a very vast continent. Like all other continents, it consists of many different countries. The inhomogenous structure in all these countries means that what obtains in one African country is not necessarily guranteed in another African country.Secondly, different forms of sponsorships abound in Africa. It is too broad to write about all the possibilities. As a result, I will answer this question from the perspective of financial supports obtainable through the formal tertiary education system. In particular, I will limit my answer to sponsorhips available to students in a typical South African university.Several levels of financial support, and educational sponsorship, options exist in the university system. All these support structures are managed by the Financial Aid Office of the given universitiy. So, to get sponsorship for your child, you have to go and discuss her/his sponsorship (or funding) requirements with the Funding Office. Or better still: ask your child to do so personally! That way, he/she will learn, early on, how to address challenges independently.Another way that you can achieve private sponsorship is to identify such opportunities by yourself, and then negotiate with the sponsors independently. You have to be proactive about it. Identify philantropic and (or) charity agencies, individuals, and corporate organizations, etc. Approach them and discuss your needs. Keep in mind that some of the corporates that offer student sponsorships actually do so statutorily, as part of their corporate social responsibility.Finally, it is important to note that there may be several selection conditions, and (or) qualification criteria, that your child must satisfy in order to qualify for the sponsorship.
Where can I get a $3500 college sponsorship for international students from Africa?
I don't know if you can get a $3500 scholarship but a number of countries provide educational scholarships to Africans as part of their aid programme.They all, as far as I know, provide scholarships for undergraduate, post graduate , fellowships and short courses typically in line with their aid objectives for that region.If you are doing a PHD or post doctoral research, their are some grants you can apply for.The Netherlands runs a robust NFP programme for Africans with a multitude of courses, Masters and PHD programmes in a high number of universities, sometimes combined with one's home countries.Australia runs a scholarship programme also: australiaawardsafrica.org.Hope this helps. Though I think a quick online search would have been easier for you.
How can I get a sponsor to fund my travel and work abroad then pay later?
You can travel, stay and meet a ton of people for free using a website/ app called couchsurfing. It’s safe and exceptional for it’s purpose. We host multiple travelers from all around the world each week. When it comes to working while traveling there are tons of websites dedicated to that as well. We just had some “surfers” from Portugal who came to Canada using a program where they work and an organic farm in exchange for room, board and some spending money.
Sponsorships, bursaries or scholarships?
I would really recommend using this website for scholarships (not awarded through your school) http://www.collegexpress.com/reg/ref/cie... I've used it to find tons of scholarships. It's really cool because you can search for scholarships by category (like major, college attending, race, religion, sport) and it will find scholarships for you. You can also enter your academics (like GPA, SAT scores, ACT scores) and it'll search for scholarships that you are applicable for. Another option is you can enter keywords if you're adopted or your parents are divorced or any other special circumstances. If you want to be very specific you can put a bunch of categories and chances are, you'll find less scholarships but less people will apply for them because they're so specific so you'll have a better chance of winning. Hope I could help and good luck! :)
