I feel so accomplished with the fact that i have given myself an impetus for advancement by scoring 700 on my GMAT. It has taken me no less than 12 years of nurturing the dream to do Ivy League MBA. My first attempt at MBA has proved to be no mean task, coping with work life balance had been taking its toll on my dreams for this length of time.
I did something really incredible today while browsing the net for scholarship, i was reminded of a website that a dear friend had talked about. The site hosted by Joint Japan/World Bank profiled a couple of study areas eligible for scholarship consideration by prospective applicants to the fund; Economics, Health, Policy, Agriculture and the like, subject areas that should help the average LDC attain their MDGs by the 2010.
The site had not listed my area of proposed study, Entrepreneurship which i considered very relevant to economic development of both the individual and the country. Going through all the Fund's criteria for eligibility I found that I seriously stood a chance albeit the non-inclusion of my area of study.
Being that I had a passion for the subject area and felt that the Fund's processes had not been reviewed for a while, I settled to write a PROTEST email to them. I found myself trying to justify to them how my country would benefit from this concept and how my ex President had within the last year established an institute for Entrepreneurial Studies in one of our local Universities.
This he felt was a new global trend that deserved attention.
I am also browsing several other sites with the hope of turning up the winning formula for a scholarship, BTW, if anyone is kind enough to lead me to some Internet destinations which could provide me with all my needs, i will be most grateful.
Let keep persevering as we hold the dream! Peace!
