Eafit University is part of the initiative Let’s Go Pa ‘lante!, which will award rescue scholarships to undergraduate students who are finishing their degrees and are at risk of dropping out due to financial difficulties.
And it is that there are many university students in the country who at this time require financial aid to complete their studies.
