that could change my existing status quo. It has also helped me in developing my skills and abilities to achieve success in future. With my academic degree from SZABIST I am hopeful to land a job in a Corporate House. At SZABIST I met a lot of people with the same interests and same working style and having being friends with them has proven great so far and has helped me in improving my grades too. As much as learning in the classroom I have learned a great deal from them outside the classroom.

I have been awarded 50% SZABIST Need-Based Scholarship in Fall 2020 semester. This scholarship has proven to be a precious gift for me and my family, as I am a single parent-child, living with my mother and grandparents it has been difficult to meet my daily expenses. Unfortunately, when my grandfather passed away 7th December 2020 the conditions worsened. In this difficult time SZABIST’s Need Based Scholarship helped me immensely. It covered half my tuition fee and gave me and my family a great relief. I thank the institute for believing on its students and helping the needy financially and morally in the form scholarships and loans. I look forward to fully utilizing this opportunity in terms of a great career.

SZABIST Need Base Scholarship (BS Bio) has really helped me a lot financially in my studies. At the start of my degree, it was really hard for me to pay my fees but after guidance from my program manager I found about the SZABIST Need based scholarship opportunities. I applied and received the award. So, far I have had a great experience in SZABIST. Looking forward to completing my bachelors and exploring the outside world.

Four years ago, graduating from a prestigious institution seemed like a remote idea to me. Now forever, I will be immensely obliged to Mitsubishi Scholarship for Bachelors in Media Sciences. The scholarship did not just enable me to concentrate on my studies without worrying about my finances, but also allowed me to relish in the process of growth in the field of media that I’m enthusiastic about. Since my third semester I have been really invested in design practices and photo and multimedia journalism. One thing I love about the program is every student has the opportunity to explore their own interests and I have this program and scholarship to thank for to work towards my passion in photo and video journalism, without the scholarship I wouldn’t have been able to even register for these courses.
