VOLUNTEERING
Welcome to my volunteering page dedicated to assisting students with their graduate school applications. I am passionate about helping talented individuals pursue their graduate studies by providing them with valuable application information and financial support, including covering application fees. My ultimate goal is to make a positive impact on the lives of aspiring scholars through this initiative.
On this website, you can access the general application guide and explore the student selection and categorization process for the application assistance program in the 2021-2022 academic year. To learn more, visit the subpages titled "General Canada Guide" and "Application Assistance Program."
Join me on this journey to empower and inspire the next generation of graduate students. Together, we can make a difference in the lives of aspiring scholars.
