Testimonial- Graduate Assistant Scholarship Scheme:

So far my experience as a GA has been quite good. The scholarship has allowed me to pursue a Master’s degree with limited financial stress. In return, I contribute a maximum of 8 hours/week to my assigned school and this work has been both challenging and rewarding. I would recommend this scholarship to any potential Masters or PhD students as it has been very beneficial for me.
