Respected Sir/ Madam
I, Dipanwita Dutta, am a student at JNCASR, Bangalore (India). I am a potential applicant for PhD, 2015 applying to Oxford and Cambridge and few other Univerities in UK. I will be grateful if you can let me know if any funding or scholarship opportunities are available. If so where to get the form. It is dream to study in these Universities and I have obtained so. But for scholarships I wont be able to study there, I am really disheartened. I am sure I am a deserving candidate but my financial condition is poor. Looking forward to an encouraging reply.
I got through Cambridge and Oxford Universities last year for the October session, 2014. But I could not apply for many scholarships as they were few and I did not get through. Please Sir kindly look through this problem I will be really grateful.
Yours Sincerely,
Dipanwita Dutta

Hi, I’m new to the site. Just wondering if you only promote universities from the U.S, U.K and Australia. I’m planning on going to college in Canada however I haven’t found any Canadian schools on your site which is why I’m just asking to get some confirmation on the matter.

Hi Joelle,
Thanks for visiting!
We unfortunately only have a list of schools in the US, not any in Canada at this time. Sorry about that- good luck finding the information you need.

Good Morning to all. I am Shivam Vyas from India. I’m Studying in class 12th and it will be complete in April 2015. My dream is to change the world that help the human beings as well as all animals and Universe. I know I’m Little Crazy But remember “Crazy Persons make History and Normal Person read History”. Good Example is Einstein that change the world. i wish to become genetic Engineer it’s my dream. i want to study in “University of Chicago” i think it is best University for me. it gave me that chance that i want. it gave that knowledge that i want to complete my dream. Peoples forgot the meaning of studying. Studying Means Not to become Doctor,Engineer etc… or not to earn lots of money. it means open your mind with Knowledge and from that old Knowledge create a New thing that helps to understand thing Better. But due to Money they Forgot the Real Meaning of learning. due this money it is not affordable to me to study in Aboard because I belongs from Middle Class Family. My father works in STD,Computer job work shop. My mother works in Private School. so they didn’t earned very much amount of money that fulfill my dream. It is very Expensive University as my brother is in Engineering College so it is not affordable me to study in University Of Chicago. I want to win contest and this help me to study in abroad. please its my humble Request to you give me one chance. 
Thank you

Dear “Perfect College” representatives,
This gesture of support to individuals in pursuit of education is highly appreciated. Personally, I am in high hope of receiving any sort of aid on my path to expand my knowledge and find my place in this world.
The education I had in my home country was not entirely on a level that I have hoped it would be when I enrolled.
Thus, I am endeavouring to continue my studies abroad, preferably in the US. My current area of expertise is closeley related to ESL, education, literature and most of all, to English language.
To be honest, I received quite an amount of knowledge and skills, but very little practice. Also, I expected a wider choice of subjects and I came out dissapointed.
I am well aware that the quality of education that I would like to receive in the US is expensive for my standards, and I am ready and willing to work unless I am granted some sort of scholarship or financial aid.
Looking forward to hearing from you,
Sincerely,
Nenad M.

It does not matter the level of achievement one had attained, if one do not achieve his/her dream, his/her very life passion; he/she is not successful. I have a degree in microbiology but my dream and passion always is to become a physician consultant , I have seen myself to be one. I have this strong desire to study in any US medical college to achieve this dream and see me fulfilled. It does not matter the reputation of the college, it won’t make me, it will just only help bring to live, to reality, what is already embedded in me. “After all, touching and handling is what makes the great differences.” I won’t hesitate to board any ship that will help me get to this destination. So far, financial aid has been my sole challenge, even till date.
I will be very grateful if my application is favourably treated.
Looking forward to hear from you soon.
Yours sincerely,
Osofuwa Abimbola Peter

Thanks ma’am for giving a lot of us out there this great opportunity. It takes a person that has had an experience of something to try to wanna change the system. I know the feeling cos i have been through it and still am…not getting to study where your heart truly desires could be really not fulfilling. I believe i have a bright future ahead of me and even though i don’t get to win, i know that time will come for me too…could be today, could be tomorrow. “The Perfect College” contest rocks!!!

My “perfect college†is CUNY Borough of Manhattan Community College. Here’s why:
After 10 years of work experience in multimedia design, I set about to go back to school to further develop my skills and to study multimedia programming. I decided to do so at the City University of New York because, coming from France, a country where education is mainly public, I had the feeling that CUNY best suits my personality. Yet, I found at the Borough of Manhattan Community College (BMCC) an incredible, diverse and helpful community with whom I feel very comfortable.
Additionally, foreign students like me, have less access to scholarships and financial aid, thus I am very conscious and grateful for CUNY’s affordability compared to other universities in United States. Last year, I applied to the BMCC Foundation Scholarship which I was honored to receive. It came as a reward for my commitment to study and to the BMCC community. It is also a great opportunity for me to earn my Associate Degree in Multimedia Programming from this college and to move on to another CUNY four-year college.
My goal is to earn a bachelor’s degree at City College of Technology. My dream is to help other students, like me, to accomplish their own dreams by working as a multimedia programming teacher at a public university like CUNY.
If you choose New York City as your destination to study abroad, I can only recommend BMCC! “BMCC, Start Here, Go Anywhere!â€

February 22nd, 2015 at 12:03 pm
Amazing initiative to get good comments about favorite colleges around the world, thanks.
Definitely All universities among top 1000 on earthe are best places to enhance personal KSA I reckon.
Undoubtedly, however, I am willing to master up at Hult International Business School. One can enjoy among several majors like MBA, EMBA, MIB, MF and MIM with one-year MBA being the most innovative approach according to AASB in 2014.
By the way for me it is very high investment as i am trying to self finance my graduate education @ Hult IBS, is there any scholarships to apply to utilize in Hult IBS??
Thank You!
