I am 30 years old and live in Dubai ? UAE. I was suffering from
financial problems when I finished my high school with excellent
score, so did not attend a higher education. I started working hard to
fulfil my needs, and developed myself by doing some courses. Now, I
have some money to do a part-time study, so last September, I enrolled
in a BA Psychology with Human Resource Management course at a British
university in Dubai. It is a campus not a franchise. I got 25% off in
my tuition fees, which is the maximum scholarship they grant, because
of my previous achievements in study.
I have got two main problems regarding my study:
Firstly, I am suffering from an extreme shortage of time ? although I
am doing one or two modules per semester but I am out of home for my
work around fourteen hours a day. Therefore, I spend my weekends to do
my readings and assignments. If I don?t catch up before the end of the
semester, I apply for a special holiday to do my assignments. I have
done very good and finished three modules by the end of this second
semester (one is compulsory for all students and two in psychology).
Imagine how long I need to get my degree when you know that I have to
do six modules in each level (year)! You know, the British system is
three years for a degree.
Secondly, I am really interested in psychology not in any minor
subject. This has been always my life dream since I was in secondary
school. A single-honours degree in psychology is not available in this
campus. To the best of my knowledge, no other university in this
country offers this course. I cannot really do a minor subject that I
am not interested in, while I am spending from my savings and suffer
from an extreme shortage of time.
I am looking for a scholarship or sponsorship that makes me able to
study full time BSc Honours Psychology in the UK or where a similar
system is applied. Please, tell me where can I apply for a scholarship
or sponsorship. I don?t want to try my luck be paying some sites some
money to get my name into the draw. I know my probability to win would
be something like 0.00001 or even less. If someone is willing to
sponsor me, I can guarantee that my dependency on them will be reduced
by getting high scores that will allow me to get the maximum of
scholarship from the university where I will be studying.
I am seeking financial help from any kind to do my degree in
psychology. Can you help me, please? |
