Heads up: This is Day 4. For 6 days, I’m sending you short daily emails to help you decide if the upcoming SA Scholarship Bootcamp is right for you.
Even if you’re not decided yet, these stories and tips will show you what’s possible, and why this might be your moment.
This might surprise you, but I’ve been rejected more times than I can count.
Swipe through my inbox in 2018 and 2021, and you’d see it:
"We regret to inform you..."
"Unfortunately, we cannot offer you admission..."
Visa denials. Again. And again.
I had the grades (UNN, 4.65/5.0), I had the drive, and I even had admissions, but for years, the doors stayed shut.
And trust me, it wasn’t for lack of trying.
In total:
I faced 3 visa denials
Rejected by schools in the US, Canada, UK, and Germany
Lost my scholarship once because of visa denials
But I kept learning.
I fixed the way I wrote my SOP.
I stopped applying randomly and started targeting the right schools.
I learned how to write the kind of cold emails professors actually respond to.
Eventually, it all changed.
Today, I hold two fully funded PhD offers.
I’ve finished a Master’s on scholarship.
I’ve helped hundreds of others do the same.
But it didn’t happen overnight - and it didn’t happen by guessing.
That’s why I created the Scholarship Accelerator Bootcamp:
So you can skip the years of confusion and go straight to what works.
💥 Enrollment closes October 18, 5pm WAT.
If you’ve ever felt like giving up - just know, I’ve been there.
And I didn’t stay there.
Neither should you.

PS:
Your rejection doesn’t mean you’re not good enough.
It just means you need a better plan. I can show you how.
