NATIONAL RESTORATION PARTY (NAREP) SECURES  200 SCHOLARSHIPS FOR ZAMBIANS TO STUDY IN CHINA FOR THE 2019 ACADEMIC YEAR

NAREP has arranged up to 200 scholarships for Bachelor and Masters programmes being offered in Chinese universities commencing in September 2019. School leavers and those currently studying in tertiary institutions are invited to submit applications. The scholarships will cover 50 per cent of tuition and accommodation for the full courses over the entire 4 year period of academic tuition for Undergraduates, whilst a full scholarship program is offered for Master’s students (i.e. tuition and accommodation fees being covered for the entire 3 year period). This is part of an ongoing programme being facilitated by NAREP in which scholarships will be secured each year to enable eligible Zambians to study a range of academic courses abroad. Full details of the courses on offer as well as the incidental costs associated with these scholarships are available at the NAREP secretariat.
