Icelandic Government Scholarships

Give me a map and find where Iceland is. Could I meet dear polar bears there? Oh! Wow, wow! Oh! How deadly cold there, I guess!
Students who get TOEFL up to 500 marks and range above the top 3 at his or her class will be qualified and recommended first to pass numbers of requirement. However, it’s for exchanged students only.
What’s the Icelandic language? It also said that in the beginning of the first year, the course is taught in English, but afterwards all the teaching is conducted in Icelandic and foreign students there have to study the Icelandic language, literature and history. “The scholarships are intended for students of language and literature”, it highlighted, especially.
How do I work on my studies and reach above the top 3? Maybe 500 marks are the minimum of TOEFL for applying for the Icelandic Government Scholarship, I think. As usual, studying abroad, such as US and Canada, requires more than 600 marks. I won’t give up any opportunity to study abroad. It sounds like a dream for most of students in Taiwan. “I have no money!” That’s the commonest reply you will hear when you ask students who major in any language. (Except Chinese.) It a dream for me as well, but I know I must give myself a chance to create the life I want. I have no idea what I would be after 2 years. Believe it or not. “I am what I was!”
Hey, friends! Nothing worse than giving up if you try.
