The Mastercard Foundation Scholars program is in its second year and the scholars are arriving on campus. This year the University of Gondar and more specifically the Mastercard Scholars office at UoG accepted 10 postgraduate scholars and 30 undergraduate scholars. Students from various disciplines are ready to engage in a highly intensive and all expense paid education. Just a few of the areas that they will be studying in include Sociology, Law, Nursing and medicine.

During their first week the students will also be taking part in financial literacy and computer skills training to build their capacities in those respective areas. We hope that the scholars have a great and prosperous academic year!
