UCC SRC Scholarship Support Program Awards 33 Students
The University of Cape Coast (UCC) Students’ Representative Council (SRC), led by Abraham Norman Nortey, has officially announced the beneficiaries of the SRC Scholarship Support Program. This initiative aims to support financially disadvantaged but academically outstanding students, promoting academic empowerment and equal opportunities for all ¹.
After a rigorous selection process, 33 students were awarded the scholarship, with some receiving full coverage and others partial support. The eligibility criteria required applicants to demonstrate genuine financial need, maintain academic excellence, and not be beneficiaries of any other scholarship.
The application period ran from January 25 to February 10, 2025, followed by interviews on February 12, 2025. The final list of beneficiaries was announced on February 15, 2025.
A Life-Changing Opportunity
Beneficiaries expressed profound gratitude to the SRC for the intervention, describing it as a life-changing opportunity. Emmanuel Kyei, who received full sponsorship, shared his excitement, stating, “This scholarship means everything to me. It will enable me to focus entirely on my studies without the stress of financial challenges.”
Commitment to Student Welfare
The SRC leadership reiterated its commitment to student welfare, emphasizing that this scholarship is a step towards alleviating financial burdens on deserving students. The program aligns with the administration’s vision of academic empowerment and equal opportunities for all students.
The SRC has assured the student body that more initiatives geared towards academic and financial support will be rolled out in the coming months. Students are encouraged to stay informed and take advantage of future opportunities.
The SRC expresses its gratitude to the Dean of Students, and the Students’ Financial Support Office, for their invaluable guidance, advice, and support throughout this initiative.http://knustnoticeboard.info
