Congratulations to our brand new 2012 WMF Scholars!!
This year we received a record-breaking 1700 applications for our WMF 2012 Empowerment through Education Scholarships. Each application was read completely at least once. Many were eliminated at this point due to being incomplete. The best moved on to another round of review and elimination. Again, top ones were selected and moved to the next round. This process happened twice more, until we arrived at the list below.
Many, many worthy students did not receive scholarships due to our limited funds. We had to make some extremely difficult decisions and we understand that many of our applicants are very, very disappointed. To those who are not WMF 2012 Scholars, we encourage you to keep following your dreams, keep striving to gain education and don’t give up hope. You are all wonderful and possess amazing potential.

Waoh, i would like to say thanks, and congratulation to those 2012 WMF students, i wish i could be in that list because i applied it, and i’m happy to see my fellow Tanzanian in the list, But Can we apply again for those who missed this year..?
Yes, applicants may reapply beginning in November, using the new application form that will be posted by then, and new guidelines. The deadline will be April 1, 2013.
I thank God for the new scholars, I did make an application and was hoping that I was going to be successful but I did not make it. I still have faith in the Lord that HE is going to open me ways cause I really needed financial aid especially for the august semester which I have not registered for .In as much as I didn’t get the scholarship I still thank the organization for the needy students who they helped.May God bless you.
Thanks alot wells mountain foundation for the effort your making to redeem the life of poor. Only the almight can reward your generous hands and hearts. Though imissed one day my turn will come iwill not stop untill almighty opens my way too and encourage others too not to give up.
”Though not being chosen as one of the WMF 2012 scholars makes me sad, but my dream lives on. Every man is responsible for his own destiny. I am the captain of my own destiny and i will commandeer the vessel of my future into the future. thanks for recognizing that we all have potentials. i will not fail to keep my dreams alive because i know that my future is bright.”
God bless those that went through.And to those that did not make it,keep hoping. The worst thing u can ever lose is hope.
I am pleased to be WMF scholar!
