A young woman is now one step closer to obtaining her Bachelor’s Degree in Environmental Studies after an intended job interview resulted in her being granted a full scholarship to the University of Guyana (UG).
This is the fortune that has befallen 20-year-old Candacey Leann Glen, who had gone to the office of EPIC-Guyana, a local Non-Governmental Organisation (NGO), for a job interview.
Glen, a former student of the West Demerara Secondary School, explained that in 2015, she was pursing studies at UG in the field of Medical Technology. However, due to pressing financial constraints, she was forced to put her studies on hold.
Two years later, with some encouragement from a friend, the young woman applied for a job at EPIC-Guyana with the main goal of working and saving for her university fees.
