Re,
Like i said i applied for scholarships since 1998 and first i was being told i do not have the right quailifications or this and that,but this days i am being told i am too old.I hoestly dont understand how a young 33yr man like me can be classified as old.I know education has know age limits or boundary’s for that matter. I hope someone out there will read this and offer me a fair oppurtunity to education.My email is stjipurua@hotmail.co.uk

Hi,
I am 33yrs and have been searching for scholarships since 1998 and have not come across one yet.I am interested in studying law or Politics and philosophy.I have not given up hope althought time is running out.The desire to educate myself is still burning as strong as ever.Its a pity we Africans who really want to educate ourselve are left in Limbo and look to the future with lees hope.To all my African brothers reading this:Please do not give up trying to gain an education…Try,try and try again you have come through so much to give up now.
