BENEFITS:

One of the greatest benefits for students (and their parents) and counsellors/teachers/advisors is the fact that all the awards and financial assistance information is located in one book. This makes it easy to research awards at specific universities or for specific governments. The book allows students to view all awards and scholarships, not just a small list that sometimes happens when students do a search on scholarship websites. Another feature is that contact names, addresses, telephone/fax numbers, websites and email addresses (when listed) are provided. Deadlines for awards are also given. For each award/scholarship or financial assistance program, the process for applying is also outlined.
