Maybe this is a stupid thing to ask and overall nugatory.
I am a 19M Zambian student currently studying for a Bachelor's degree in Software Engineering at the University of Zambia (UNZA). I am entering my second year and am considering transferring to a university abroad to complete my undergraduate degree.
I am seeking a scholarship that would cover tuition, accommodation, living expenses and, if possible, international travel.
I currently receive full sponsorship through Zambia's Higher Education Loans and Scholarships Board (HELSB). I understand that this sponsorship may not transfer to another institution, so I would need to secure adequate funding before making any decision to leave UNZA.
I'm hoping to find a university that would let me continue my second year and transfer my UNZA credits to the said university. But if those chances are so low, I don't think I would mind restarting the year.
I hear most people would complete their bachelors degree in Zambia, then pursue their master's degree abroad. Is that a plausible thing for me to consider doing too?
What's your advice? Ever been in the same situation? Should I just continue studying at UNZA and forget about it?
