Scholarship Competition: And the winners are…
In September 2013, for the second year in a row, ACT held the Scholarship Competition in the Bissell Library by providing 3 full scholarships for the academic year 2013-2014 (2 scholarships for undergraduate and 1 for MBA studies). In this way, ACT provides an educational opportunity for exceptional students who want to study at ACT and pursue a globally recognized degree which is both US and EU validated. The test was an aptitude test, not a knowledge test, and therefore, no special preparation was required. It assessed the students’ abilitiy to do well in pursuing a degree at ACT. More than 60 candidates participated in the competition.
The purpose of the Scholarship Competition is to facilitate highly qualified youth to attend the American College of Thessaloniki and study and flourish in an international and academically demanding environment. The National Bank of Greece provided one of the MBA scholarships.
The winners of the Scholarship Competition for the undergraduate studies were Avramides Spyridon and Koltsakli Anastasia and for MBA studies were Romanopoulou Evangelia and Rolilides Dimitris. Because of the fact that both of them reached the same highest score, ACT tried to raise the funds and gave to both of them scholarship. In the same scholarship competition, another two scholarships were given only to Anatolia candidates. The winners were Chatzigiannopoulos Dimitris and Mylonas George.
