1. What is the Mentoring to Attain International Youth Achievement (MaiYa) MasterMIND talent search all about?

A. The Mentoring to Attain International Youth Achievement (MaiYa) MasterMIND talent search seeks top performers. We award a scholarship of Rs. 50,000/- and "lifelong mentoring" to build international leaders in all areas.

2. What do you mean when you say, "lifelong mentoring"?

A. Most scholarship programs give you money for your education, and may occasionally, follow up with you on your success. Our scholarship program is different. When you are selected for a MaiYa MasterMIND Scholarship and become an iFellow, you’ll be assigned a series of mentors who have committed to mentoring you for life. We will establish opportunities for you to meet your mentors and to routinely follow up with them concerning your academic success, your career, and lifelong aspirations. As you continue to grow and learn more about mentoring yourself, you will be involved in peer-to-peer mentoring, and ultimately become a mentor yourself for a new generation of scholars. Within the mentoring program you will be learning life lessons in addition to your academic lessons, and be mentored in global leadership and entrepreneurship-elements crucial to the next generation of world leaders.

3. What is an "iFellow"?

A. After your selection as a MaiYa MasterMIND Scholar, you will be inducted into an elite group of students known as "iFellows," which is short for "Iyengar Foundation Fellowship" As an iFellow you’ll receive the lifelong mentoring in global leadership and entrepreneurship which will be crucial to your continuing success as a world leader.
