Winning a scholarship to study in the USA

About this event

Yocket would like to invite you to a webinar entitled “Boost Your Chances of Winning a Scholarship to Study in the USA!”

This webinar will be presented by one of our partners, MPOWER Financing. MPOWER is the only US.-based company that makes loans to international students studying in the US. and Canada without collateral or a co-signer. MPOWER also awards over $65,000 in scholarships each year to international students through its Global Citizen, Women in STEM, Nursing, and other scholarship programs.

Don’t miss this rare opportunity to get an insider’s look into how a scholarship provider makes its award decisions-and get ahead of the competition!

The director of MPOWER’s scholarship competition will discuss:

  • How to find scholarships for which you are eligible - She’ll tell you tips and tricks about how to negotiate scholarship packages from your university, and she’ll direct you to the best websites for your search!

  • How to narrow down your target list to those scholarships for which you will be most competitive - She’ll tell you how to use the information in the scholarship listing to estimate your chances of winning, prioritize those with the highest chance of winning, and avoid wasting time on the others!

  • How to write a winning essay - She’ll tell you just what a U.S. judge will be looking for, and how to make sure you give it to them! She’ll also show some examples of winning scholarship essays, including one from MPOWER’s Indian winner of last year’s Global Citizen Scholarship Competition, Rohit Gupta.

  • How to produce a winning video contest entry-She’ll show you the top two winners from MPOWER’s video contest and give you some tips and tricks to be competitive in this increasingly popular twist on a traditional scholarship competition.

Finally, MPOWER will tell you about its current scholarship competitions and how to be the most competitive for those.
