Searching for graduate school scholarships is daunting. There’s the uncertainty of rejection or failure and the hope of the ultimate prize of success. That’s why we have invited Kyla Denwood, who has secured a fully-funded graduate school scholarship with the enviable opportunity of choosing between Harvard, Georgetown, and Johns Hopkins.
Kyla is among the roughly four percent of applicants selected for the 2023 Payne Fellowship. In this episode, she discusses discovering the Payne Fellowship, a diversity initiative within the U.S. State Department and USAID. This fellowship gives her a unique opportunity to pursue graduate studies and embark on a career path focused on international development with no financial hassles.
She offers valuable tips and advice on meticulous preparation, authentic self-presentation, and creating a supportive network of advisors and friends. Tune in to this episode to learn how you, too, can become a recipient of a fully funded, prestigious scholarship award like Kyla’s.
