As self-funding students are financially stable, we feel that it is important to financially support those students who are dependent on scholarships and education loans for their education abroad. In addition, as the value of this scholarship will not be able to cover the entire expenses of an abroad education, it is important for students to arrange the rest of the funds through an education loan.
WeMakeScholars is the partner for Education Future International Scholarship 2020. They have assisted and facilitated the crowdfunding process from the past scholarship winners to arrange finance required for setting up this scholarship fund. As this scholarship cannot cover 100% of your expenses, students should apply for an education loan to cover the rest of the expenses. WeMakeScholars is considered as an expert in assisting students in securing the best education loan in India. They are an organisation funded and supported by the Ministry of IT, Govt. of India under the Digital India Campaign to offer unbiased support to the study abroad aspirants in arranging the required finance for their overseas education. Please note that they will not be charging any fee from the scholarship applicants for any of their services.
