“I believe it may be a once in a lifetime opportunity for me to visit a prestigious city and nourish myself intellectually with the social and academic exposure it offers. Acquiring this scholarship has allowed me to take a step towards becoming the person who I’ve aspired to be all my life. I understand that this investment is a long term investment by the ORA and I owe it to the Academy to become a productive member of this global community and develop a mindset in me that drives me to do my part in evolving the community at large.”

Such a grand opportunity has filled me with joy and a sense of duty. A duty to make the best use of this scholarship. A duty to enhance the ORA community. A duty to reciprocate the help ORA has granted me. By accepting this scholarship, I give an assurance to do these things. As I have applied to do the Medical Preparation course, I hope to absorb and apply the knowledge made available to me on the summer camp in the hopes that I become the best doctor I can be at the best university I can apply to. I further hope to gain a sense of companionship with my fellow summer camp attendees for mutual benefit and as an act to preserve the community values.

“In order to succeed, we must first believe that we can”. As applying to the Oxford Royale Summer Program, never would I have imagined that such honor would be granted to me. After receiving my acceptance, the lesson I learned is that anything is possible, depending on how hard you try. It was simply fantastic, no words could describe the way I felt. Staying in one of the best Universities ever, together with people from all different countries will be simply the best. I can’t wait.”
