Kenitra - The Moroccan-American Commission for Educational and Cultural Exchange has launched the Fulbright Study Grant program for 2015-2016.
This scholarship covers all tuition fees, transportation, and living expenses, making it one of the most important scholarships that Moroccan undergraduates can apply for to pursue a Master's studies in their field of choice.
This study grant has existed for many years, and is considered an excellent opportunity for Moroccan students who meet the application’s eligibility requirements to study in an American university of their choosing. It is important to note that tuition fees in the US are quite expensive, especially for non-citizens, making this scholarship very useful and worthwhile.
The study grant's website places emphasis on a very important issue for students. It highlights plagiarism and the associated punishments for students who commit plagiarism in their work or research.
To quote an excerpt of their note: “Plagiarism is extremely serious business, and no hint of plagiarism will be tolerated on student grant applications. Plagiarism by students at American universities often results in the students receiving a zero for plagiarized work, expulsion from the course, or more drastic action, such as expulsion from the university for a semester or more."
Furthermore, the website gives several useful tips to avoid plagiarism, which can essentially ruin a student's academic career.
The scholarship’s deadline is July 30, 2015. Visit the Fulbright website for more information: http://www.macece.org/box-1-
