[OSGeo Africa] Student Seeking Funding For Honours

[Athenkosi Ntshate]

Tim

For now I want to be based in the Country I can do M.Sc out of the country,
I am not ready for getting out this year as I was not prepared for that and
that will take sometime as I have already applied and got admission. My
contract ends in March and after it I will be home doing nothing as a GIS
intern at Human Settlements. I would like to go abroad but not at this
stage I didnt prepare.

I can try and apply but its sometthing that will gappen around next
semester  not this semester

Regards

A Ntshate
