Dr Kafoutchoni’s reading
The key word here is « full-ride »: the page guarantees tuition and additional financial support, but it does not itemize the specific costs, so you should not assume travel, housing, or a fixed allowance. The real gate is not only academic, but documentary: household income, official papers that support the situation, and community references must tell the same story. If you are not Mauritian, you also need to plan for the entry permit sequence, because it comes after admission and can slow down an otherwise strong application. The right move is to secure admission first, then immediately align your financial proof and references before submitting.
