Grant Description

On Aug. 4, 2016, Fiji's Minister for Education Mahendra Reddy hailed China's government scholarship program, as 12 Fijian students were issued university admission letters at the Chinese Embassy.

The 12 students, after going through a complete process of recommendation, assessment, interview and panel review, have been admitted by a range of colleges and universities in China for undergraduate or postgraduate programs with full scholarships provided by the Chinese government. Since 1984, more than 130 Fijian students have gone to study in China under the Chinese government scholarship program.
