Are national honors really worth it?
I’m considering applying for national honors, but I’ve heard mixed reviews. Some say it’s not that special, it requires a lot of time and effort, and may not even be worth the money. What are your thoughts on this? Also, do you know if there are scholarships available in Europe? I’m not looking to study in the U.S. due to visa issues and high costs. Europe seems like a better option for me.

Applying for national honors can be a worthwhile experience, depending on your goals and aspirations. While some people may feel that the process is lengthy and the benefits aren’t significant, others view it as a valuable accolade that can enhance their resume and open doors for future opportunities. It often depends on how you plan to leverage that honor in your academic or professional journey.
Regarding scholarships in Europe, there are plenty of options available for various countries and programs, especially for international students. Many European universities offer scholarships specifically for individuals from outside the EU, and countries like Germany, the Netherlands, and Sweden have programs in place to attract international talent. Researching specific universities and their financial aid options could lead you to some great opportunities.
If your focus is on Europe and you’re open to studying there, I’d recommend exploring the scholarship options early on and applying to as many as you qualify for. They can significantly lessen the financial burden while providing you with an enriching experience. Good luck!
