Each year, alumni who studied in Japan through our school's transfer program and are now continuing their education at university hold an essay competition for the younger students moving up to grade 10, and give a 50% tuition discount to each of the two students selected.
The value of this scholarship does not lie only in the tuition discount. It lies in the fact that students who once sat at the desks of this school, carrying their own dreams, are now supporting the dreams of the next generation of younger students.
Grade 10A student B. Togtuundari was also selected for this year's “Alumni-Named Scholarship” and received a 50% tuition scholarship.
In the essay “Would You Believe That One Needle Can Save One Life at a Time?”, B. Togtuundari writes about deciding to become a doctor, following the example of the student's mother, a physician of traditional medicine, and about the goal of studying medicine in Japan after graduating from Uudam Mongol School.
“My greatest dream is to return home one day and devote my knowledge, skills, and heart to Mongolia's health sector,” B. Togtuundari wrote.
