Scholarships that Strengthened the Higher Education Opportunities for Students Worldwide

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) January 16, 2012 -- Across the world, pursuing higher education has become a privilege available only to an elite few among a mass exception. However, RISE University is committed to providing quality yet affordable education to students globally, irrespective of their financial background. RISE Presidential Scholarship scheme is the initiative in this direction.
The Presidential Scholarship provided scholarships of up to £2 million on all degree and diploma programmes to students who showed the most academic potential but are least likely to attend a top ranked university, such as RISE.

The Presidential Scholarship scheme was a part of the RISE University’s Financial Support Programme, aimed at offering deserving students bounteous fee discounts so as to allow them to pursue their higher education without any financial constraints. This effort helped thousands of students globally to complete their programme without any financial worries at RISE University, which is internationally accredited, recognized and offers a diverse range of degree and diploma programmes.

At the launch of new Presidential Scholarship scheme, the Dean of RISE University said, “We wish to facilitate a large number of students all over the world and are working to support them through programme fee waivers, making higher education accessible to a wider segment of population.” He added, “Students who take advantage of the new Presidential Scholarships can enroll in their degree programme for just £99 and complete it for as little as £999.”

Certainly, the introduction of relaxed tuition fees has had a significant impact on the choices of the individuals who gave up higher education due to personal or professional commitments and financial setbacks. In the UAE alone, as many as 3,750 students pursued advanced degrees through RISE University’s Presidential Scholarships. RISE’s Presidential Scholarships has successfully enabled students from all over the world to pursue advanced degrees from one of the world’s finest online universities.

Michael Damfroy, senior teacher from a Public School, spoke on this occasion, “This has been one of the most worthwhile initiative for students so far. I would be saddened to know that the brightest students of our country cannot obtain education from a reputed university because they are unable to afford it. The Presidential Scholarships provided by RISE University provided a great opportunity for our youth to get access to higher education and maximise their potential.”

David Roach, a competent professional, qualified for the scholarship and enrolled in RISE’s bachelor’s degree programme. He said, “Without the Presidential Scholarship it would have been impossible for me to pursue an advanced degree. I know so many friends of mine who have given up the thought of attending the university because they could not afford expensive tuition fees. It was truly a blessing for so many people like me.”

RISE University remains steadfast in their pursuit of offering quality education which is accessible and affordable to all, hence provides numerous services that meet the basic needs of the students. Students from all over the world continue to benefit from RISE University’s different fee reduction methods and other student support services.
