Opportunity Details
The VD Scholarship - Veena Devi Ji Scholarship is an initiative to democratise counselling for college admissions through Tads Education- Global Pioneers in Transformative Education Consulting.

Why the VD Scholarship
Undergraduate and/or graduate school access is only a dream for many, even today.
A good education offers research and lucrative job opportunities that can drastically transform the trajectory of a student's life, more so for students from marginalised and financially weaker backgrounds. However, the cost of going to college, especially in the US, is the biggest barrier for most international students. For instance, the actual cost of completing an undergraduate degree at a top private university in the US is close to $400,000 cumulatively for 4 years and that of a postgraduate degree can cost upto $250,000 for 2 years. The hidden mandatory costs before applying can also range between $1000 to $5000, depending on the student's circumstances.
Personal mentorship throughout school/college and professional help on applications with graduates & professionals from Harvard, MIT, NUS, Stanford, Google, McKinsey, and so on is only a privilege for many, but it can radically improve a student's academic experience and in consequence, the undergraduate/graduate school where they end up at. This is exactly the problem we are trying to solve through the VD scholarship.
VD Scholarship has and will enable hundreds of students to accomplish their dreams by gettinginvaluable personal mentorship to students who might not be able to afford it.
VD Scholars will be offered either a full or a partialscholarship towards the complete Personal Counselling Program for Undergraduate and Postgraduate applicants.
