2. Nature of Our Service
ScholarWaka is an independent scholarship information and educational guidance platform. We research, curate, and publish information about scholarships, fellowships, internships, grants, and study opportunities available worldwide. Beyond free content, we offer digital products, professional writing and application services, and paid and free mentorship and consultation programmes.
We are not a scholarship provider, funding body, or government agency. We do not award scholarships or process applications. All scholarship applications are submitted directly through the official websites of the relevant providers.
3. Accuracy of Information
We make every reasonable effort to ensure that the information published on ScholarWaka is accurate, current, and complete. However, scholarship details — including deadlines, eligibility criteria, award amounts, and availability — can change without notice.
You are solely responsible for verifying all scholarship information with the official provider before taking any action based on content found on this Website. ScholarWaka Limited accepts no liability for decisions made in reliance on information published here.
4. Products and Services
ScholarWaka offers digital products and professional services available for purchase on the Website, including but not limited to scholarship templates, CV and SOP writing services, letter of recommendation writing, scholarship essay writing, and complete university application support.
