Thank you for providing this much needed support to me and my family. The Accommodation Scholarship removes loads of weight off my shoulders – I no longer need to work so hard to pay the bills. I will be able to study harder and hopefully achieve greater things.
The EAPP Accommodation Scholarship has had an immensely positive outcome on my studies and my personal life. The scholarship has made it possible for me to stay at Miguel Cordero Residence and use its study rooms, gym and common area to meet classmates and new friends. These resources have allowed me to put time and effort into my studies and personal life, and I strongly recommend applying for a scholarship when looking for a place to stay at any of ACU's accommodation sites across the country.
