Having a lot of free time as a new joiner: spending working hours in HQ with nothing to do except self-studying and on-line training allows me to frequent some scholarships websites. I mean, I REALLY like my new office and its people and still very much looking forward to experiencing the kind of works a consultant will deal with, but it still doesn’t beat my desire to go abroad and get a master degree from some noted University. And I guess it never will. The more I’m idle, the more I google over those scholarships, and the more my desire becomes.
By a lot of considerations, here are some of the scholarships which I’m very much interested in and fortunately are feasible to apply for. These are some of the well-known scholarships among scholars. Most of you may have already heard about them, but for you who have not, this is for your reference.
Australian Development Scholarships
Fulbright Master’s Degree Program
Erasmus Mundus International Master in Management of Information Technology
Erasmus Mundus European Master on Software Engineering
I’ve already applied for ADS last September. However, the first notification will be announced not earlier than Dec 21. As for the rest of them, I’m intending to apply in next year’s selection. Note that the most of the deadlines will be in sometime around the first months of 2008. Some prerequisites that require extra effort would be to collect letter of recommendations (one of above scholarships require TWO letter of recommendations, no less) and conduct costly tests such as GMAT/GRE and IELTS/TOEFL.
If you wish, please kindly add other scholarships to the list of mainstream scholarships above.
