Dear Eafinder.com,
I write as a Nigerian who is blind, and willing to further my education by reading special education as a course in Kenya Institute of Special Education to make some inquiries as follows:
1. When is the next admission for diploma students commencing?
2. What will it cost me to study this course as a foreign student in this institution?
3. Do they offer scholarship opportunities for their foreign students?
Your answers to the above 3 questions will be very much appreciated.
Thank you even as I humbly await your prompt and sincere reply, included with answers to my 3 questions above.
Digitally yours,
Samuel Paul.
