Hi Everyone, We wanted to reach out and share some exciting news regarding the I-Stem Fellowship Program. Due to the overwhelming response and the desire to ensure that more candidates have access to this incredible opportunity, we have decided to extend the application deadline to July 15th, 2023.
We understand that the summer vacation period can be a busy time for many students, and it's possible that some may have missed the initial information about the fellowship while being away on holidays. We don't want anyone to miss out on this chance to be part of this transformative upskilling journey. By extending the application deadline, we aim to accommodate those who may have been unable to apply within the previous time frame. We kindly request your assistance in spreading the word about this application deadline extension. Together, we can ensure that more deserving candidates have the opportunity to participate and benefit from the program. Here is the link to know more and apply for the fellowship again https://www.inclusivestem.org/fellowship.html Thank you for your continued support and engagement. Please let us know if you have any questions or concerns. Best, -Shakul On 21/06/2023, Shakul Sonker <[email protected]> wrote: > Hey everyone, > > This is a gentle reminder to my previous email.
