The Ministry of Education’s Scholarship Secretariat hosted close to 200 conditional approved overseas scholarship applicants for the 2023 academic year at a two-day information session at the new John Gray High School Performance Hall on 10-12 July.
The event was attended by parents and over 100 applicants with an interest to study in the United Kingdom and Europe and just under 95 applicants who plan to study in North America and the Caribbean.
Representatives from the Scholarship Secretariat gave presentations focused on the next steps in the final approval stage, highlighting the various documents and information required to complete the application process. Applicants were reminded that final academic results are required to complete the process. A question-and-answer section took place at the end of the sessions with students encouraged to network with others within the same field of study or geographic location.
Dr. Shari Smith, Manager at the Scholarship Secretariat noted that the presentations were well-received and a success and that they mirrored what students, and their guardians will experience at an orientation session at an international session. “I am pleased and impressed with the attendance. Being able to provide this information at this point of their application process will hopefully make the remaining process smoother for students”. she shared.
