The scholarships are awarded to students on the basis of academic achievement, leadership qualities and involvement in the community.
"The UOWD understands that financing college can be a big headache for many parents especially now that higher education costs seem to be on the rise. We want to give students that have shown great academic achievement a chance to fulfill their dreams. We urge students to apply," said Mohammed Hettini, Marketing manager and external relations manager UOWD.
The scholarships are available to new and current students commencing their studies in September 2004 as long as they meet university entry requirements including English proficiency.
The priority deadline for scholarship consideration is the 30th of August 2004.
The scholarship committee will meet in the first week of September to decide on the scholarship recipients and the names will be made public subsequently.
