Why I like and chose France as a STUDY DESTINATION

1. The fees were cheap!
I paid 243 euros as my yearly (not monthly) tuition fee for a master's degree. It was less than 1500 Ghana cedis.

It's possible to do a 1-year or 2-year masters based on your BSc. 2. I didn't need to write IELTS because I am from an English-speaking country. No GRE needed

3. The government paid a part of your rent for you. It's called CAF.

4. Food was so cheap or maybe I just knew the cheap shops.

Why I like France as a study destination

If you have about 2,000 Ghana cedis or 123,771.78 naira or 263€ you can pay for your yearly not monthly tuition fees in France for a masters degree. It's possible to do a 1 year or 2 years masters. 2. Do you need IELTS? English speaking natives don't but then it depends on the university.

3. Food is so cheap.

4. The government offers free health insurance ( I think 60% coverage). There's a possibility to apply for 100% coverage.

Scholarships available in UK

Getting admission to a university in UK is quite easy. It's possible to even get admission within a week.

Funding is the issue! When applying at least target universities with internal funding.

Things you should know about scholarships / admissions abroad

1. Fully funded scholarship is a very broad term. This may entail only tuition. What this means is that you need to figure out your living expenses. Others may cover tuition and a stipend for living expenses. Based on the city you may be living in, this may be enough or not!

2. Research or teaching assistantship is like a job you are performing and you get paid for it. If your scholarship document doesn't state explicitly that you would have a tuition fee waiver,

I used to get upset when people asked for things, I had already provided information to in my tweet! I later realised they were asking not because they were not reading but sometimes, they genuinely didn't know yet how to manoeuvre their way around Twitter. It changed a lot for me and how I interact with others. It took me several years to find my footings on here. So I will keep on repeating the same information over and over again if my time would allow me.
