April-2007

In April 2007, the general scholarship Commitee had stated the new addition of "The Kuwait University's Scholarship Regulations", which it changed by 50%. For the record, The College of Business Administration had presented several reasonable suggestions which helped in that improvement. One of those changes is full paid salary for the seventh year of the scholarship, and many more other regulations.
