The Smart Scholar (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798325516115)

Africa is a continent filled with brilliant young minds who are passionate about learning and improving themselves to create and build a more sustainable future for the continent. However, challenges around equitable access to high quality tertiary education pose a threat to its economic development and poverty eradication. This issue is further exacerbated by the lack of awareness of funding opportunities, strategies to attempt applications, limited funding options and having no mentor for these young people.

Temitayo Sodunke featured scholars who have succeeded from Africa and carved a niche for themselves in academic and professional excellence through their respective disciplines. She has profiled their stories for the benefit of other young people who aspire to do the same in the first edition of her book 'The Smart Scholar'. It serves as a brilliant guide that offers any student the requisite skills to fill in admission and scholarship applications in a more professional manner to increase their chances of submitting a successful application.

This book captures scholarship opportunities available locally and internationally while showing the foundational concepts of admissions, scholarship applications, real life success stories, motivations, and challenges from experienced scholars from different countries in Africa and how they have navigated their journey to excellence. It is a book that should serve as a pocket guide for young scholars looking to study higher education beyond Africa.
