Well, don't lie. I like honesty, even if it's brutal.

In my country studying in Aussie is like the main option, specially for those who seeks scholarship (like my self :) ). Cause the amount of is is enough to pay the school fee, books, rent, monthly allowance, etc.
I've graduated from university few months ago and trying to look for postgraduate scholarship and it's easier to look for such than for graduate degree scholarship. Like Koa said, studying in UK is so darn expensive and I've gave up that hope long time ago :(
which country you in? Wait, there are that many scholarships here? Which unis? I didn't even know that.
:D
I'm a third worl country citizen and you'd be surprised with the number scholarships in a 3rd world country, especially offered by those richy rich western countries based on historical and political reasons
yeah. all those equity things. I can't apply for them.
I wish I could say what I want about the scholarship and equity matters but that would be a hipocracy!
just say it.
yeah, but who am i kidding?
myself
SAY IT!!
Now Faye, you're not trying to intimidate me are you?
I think equity scholarships are a fine idea, if somebody has been through hardship and genuinely needs help. Some people really need financial assistance, and giving it to them is good. But at the same time you can't hand things to people on a platter because they're just from a certain country, and because your country wishes to maintain it's political ties. That's what I think you wanted to say, that's my opinion on the topic, and I wanted to hear it from somebody actually in a third world country. Or, I wanted to hear your real opinion. Not everybody thinks like me.
It's not really what I wanted to say. First, if you look at the registration form you'd see that they only offer certain subjects, which of course they say will give more benefit to the country itself (yea right!). Second, after 9-11, lots of funds are given for subjects which are related to securities issues. Third, they give specific requirements about what sort of applicants that can be accepted.
Ironic thing is, the subjects they offer scholarships for are in areas where there are no jobs. SO you get a scholarship, have no student loans, but then, lo and behold, have no job either.
