Deadline Time Line

Online applications has been extended to May 23, 2023. This is sudden change students should check back with the original website often to ensure they do not miss a deadline date.

For the scholarship inquiry, students are asked to use the contact phone number below with the extension line. Since this means the number is an international number long distance rates may apply. With that in mind, students can use the contact info that is available on the college website where information is at the bottom of the webpage.

 

Open Submission Window Time Frame

The open submission window time frame follows the same time frame as the application processing window for admissions. That means that each student should look towards the actual deadline and open window date for when the university is accepting admissions applications for students to apply to study there.

Anytime before May 23, 2023. This gives students a few months to correctly fill out their admissions form to send to the university to possibly be accepted as a new student to the university.

Student Visa

If the student is an international student not from the country, then they will need to plan and inquire for a student visa before arriving. This is the best way to have a student visa as some countries do require students to have their student visa on them once they arrive at the student destination.

 

Annual or Renewable Scholarship Options

This is an annual scholarship that lasts for the given time frame or how long the research project needs to be conducted. This is not a renewable scholarship research option. There may be option to receive a higher funding percentage depending on the student financial or low income background and current state of living.

Here at Pick a Scholarship we offer a full range of scholarship databases for all students looking for varying degree levels. While we provide exact information for each scholarship application and when the deadlines/open submission windows are held. We offer a contact section on each post where the admissions of the university or the director of a private sponsor can be reached to give more information or details.

All students should check with the university website about any delays or changes to the open submission window or deadline time frame. This is the best way to see if anything needs to be reviewed or changed before submitting their application.

Any student that is unsure about the rules and guidelines that are meant to be followed by the recipient should consult the website link provided. Anyone looking for more information that is not found on the website should contact the email address.

So far there has been no mention of any delays for this opportunity or any cancellations.
