As usual, we are back with some of the best scholarships from around the world. The origin of the word goes back to ancient Greece. The word ‘Scholastes’ originally meant someone who lives at ease. It was only in the 16th century that the word ‘Scholarship’ came to be used as a ‘source of funding for someone who wishes to study’.
