SCHOLARSHIP INFORMATION FOR 2018 - DEADLINES ARE VERY TIGHT. A long phrase but if you hate reading, you will wallow in ignorance till death. Just a reminder; Most jobs, most education applications and immigration things are now all done online. AND if you have no computer, Uganda has many Internet cafes. DO NOT ACT like you are smart. Go to a cafe. Your feature phone from China (even my original SamSung) does not load such websites fully. READ on a computer with Internet access. If you have none of these or hate reading, you have my mobile number. I will do the application for you. ........................................................................................................................................................
