African Scholar has been around for a while now.  We released our beta version in 2005 and have been at it ever since.  Over this three year period, we’ve built a database of over 30,000 scholarship records, 20,000 Universities in Africa, North America, Canada and in Europe and a platform for entry level jobs. 

15,000 plus people registered their information on africanscholar.com.  Well, with significant input from many of those registrants, we’re putting together a much more efficient database engine to help match registrants with potential scholarships, top academic programs, entry level career opportunities, academic and college life advice, test preparation and many more features to make the admissions process and post secondary experience easier for all africanscholar.com registrants.

We,re building a strong team of web developers, admissions specialists, human resource specialists and other education analysts to ensure we provide all Africanscholar.com registrants with the best online source for information on higher education for Africa and Africans.

So stay tuned and sign up for our newsletter for the African Scholar 2.0 launch.  We’ll be introducing you to our team shortly.  In the meantime check our blog regularly for updates on everything from scholarships to new initiatives around the world that benefit African students.  You can also join us on twitter or on facebook at Scholarships for Africans
