are you applying for undergraduate or graduate studies

Goodafternoon everyone!

I'm new here but i've succeeded in going through every information on this thread.

Congratulations to those who got this prestigious scholarship and goodluck to my fellow colleagues in the struggle.

I have plans on applying for Master's program in Public Health via MCF this year.

My first question goes thus: Can we upload and send transcripts ourselves via the online portal?
I know most scholarships/Universities prefer your Previous university to send it directly to them.

Can someone with National Diploma apply and how?
Thanks

Which partnering school are you interested in?

I'm speaking on University of Edinburgh application process now. For UoE, you dont have to go through the stress of sending your transcript from your school to MasterCard. You simply upload your transcript with other documents after you've gotten the scholarship and when you're applying for admission in the school.

For UoE, you don't need an English test (IELTS or TOEFL), just transcript, certificate and essays)

No for both questions. If you get accepted for the scholarship, an English test will be organized for you by the school.

I cannot assure you that the topic is constant every year. I also noticed that it depends on what you're applying for.. Are you a postgraduate or undergraduate applicant? What are your areas of interest?

However, the essays I wrote were

1. Tell us something you're passionate about or something that motivates you. Write on a topic that interests you and shows your personal values.
2. What sorts of relationships or networks will you want to develop as a MasterCard scholar in Edinburgh and how will they help you when you have returned home?
3. Tell us about a time when you faced challenges in your education and more importantly, how you overcame them?
4. Tell us of a time you displayed leadership potentials and with what outcomes.
5. How will being a MasterCard scholar benefit others in the future?

The above questions were paraphrased to the best of my ability. I cannot remember them word for word but I wrote on topics related to the above.
