Today, 20 students received full scholarships from BTL. It's part of the company's scholarship program which has been going on for 24 years now, where brilliant but needy high school students are given full funding for their tuition, books and other fees for a high school of their choice.

Today, 7News stopped by to meet the new recipients, and here's what they told us:

This year BTL is giving away 19 high school scholarships and 1 tertiary level scholarship. They were chosen from 200+ applicants though a rigorous process which took several weeks.
