Education Future International Scholarship is a scholarship program meant for exceptional Indian students interested in studying abroad. The scholarship scheme has helped many less privileged people with academic prowess to achieve their educational aims and objectives.
The scholarship was recently recognized by UNESCO for its transparency and for helping many Indian students to achieve success in education. Education Future International Scholarship was founded by those who had once won scholarships in the past to contribute their quota to society as reciprocity.
The idea behind the establishment is more like giving back to the society that once gave to one. These people see the good in giving something to you for free and give it back when you have the opportunity.
