iSTEPup students
Here you can find a number of the iSTEPup students who are included in our programme. With your help, they can follow the medical study they have always dreamed of and thus make a difference in their own country. The iSTEPup Foundation therefore strives for self-reliance.
If you hover over the photos you see the name, study and country where the student comes from. If you click on the photo a new tab will open with the student’s personal page. On this page the student explains why he or she needs the scholarship and you will find information about the study, the costs and the buddy introduces him or herself. You will also find the study results, updates and photos here. In this way, iSTEPup hopes to be transparent for both the donors and the students themselves. More importantly, you can follow them every step of the way!
