Tips to Win the GeneTex for Education Scholarship Program
The essay plays a key role in the scholarship award. Make sure your essay is professional and under 500 words. I believe that what is worth doing is worth doing well. It is going to be annoying to work so hard for an outstanding academic record only to miss out on a scholarship because of one essay that is not even more than 500 words.
Conclusion
Apart from the fact that this scholarship is not for everybody, there are not too many people who know about this scholarship. The competition is low, hence you stand a very good chance of being selected as a beneficiary. Don’t fail to give it a try.
