CURSORY: A young man who graduated with a first class recounts how he got rejected by 27 scholarship schemes he applied for before being being awarded 3 full scholarships.


A brilliant young man by the name of Jude Ogbodo has recently shared his latest academic feat with his followers.
Jude revealed that, he graduated with a first class in his first degree and started applying for scholarships.
According to him, he got a lot of rejections but he didn’t give up, rather he improved academically and continued.
He applied for about 32 scholarships in various fields of studies and sent 60 emails to professors in several countries, but in the end, he got rejected by 27 of them.
“In 2021, I resolved to improve my relevant academic skills and knowledge and then tripled the number of applications I submitted. Between the months of April 2021 and April 2022, I applied for about 32 scholarships in public health, community health, global health, international health, biological science, parasitology, and entomology in Europe, USA, Canada and Asia. I sent over 60 cold emails to professors in Australia, the United States, and Canada seeking for better education via research and teaching assistantship positions” he said.
His hard work eventually paid off when he received two partially funded scholarships and three fully funded scholarships out of which he accepted the Erasmus Mundus Joint Master’s Degree in Public Health in Disaster.
Jude thanked all the people who supported and encouraged him along the line.
