Before you apply

Four things to check for every scholarship

A useful opportunity fits both your profile and the costs you need help with.

Does your profile fit?

Check the academic criteria, eligible subjects, study level and any country restrictions.

What does it cover?

Look at tuition support and living expenses separately, and plan for costs the award does not cover.

When is it due?

Compare the scholarship deadline with your university application dates and leave time to prepare.

What will you need?

Read the specific application instructions and organise the evidence each opportunity asks for.

Your application plan

From searching to following up

Start early, focus on suitable opportunities and keep track of each application.

Start Early:
Begin your scholarship search well in advance of your application deadlines. Many scholarships have early application dates.
Research Scholarship Sources:
Look for scholarships offered by universities, government organizations, private institutions, foundations, and nonprofit organizations. Use scholarship search engines and websites like Fastweb, Scholarships.com, and Scholarship.com to find opportunities that match your profile.
Check University Scholarships:
Research the universities or colleges you’re interested in to find out about their scholarship programs. Many institutions offer scholarships to both domestic and international students.
Merit-Based Scholarships:
Focus on maintaining a strong academic record, as many scholarships are merit-based and require a high GPA or standardized test scores. Participate in extracurricular activities, volunteer work, and community service to enhance your application.
Submit a Strong Application:
Carefully review the scholarship application requirements and ensure you meet all eligibility criteria. Double-check for any formatting or submission guidelines, and submit a complete and error-free application.
Follow Up:
After applying, monitor your email for updates and notifications from scholarship committees. Respond promptly to any requests for additional information or interviews.

Questions about scholarship guidance

Does applying guarantee a scholarship?

No. Each scholarship has its own eligibility and selection process. Guidance helps you understand requirements and prepare an application; the awarding organisation makes the decision.

Should I choose a university or look for funding first?

Explore both together. Compare suitable courses and universities while checking which funding opportunities apply to your study level, subject and profile.

Can a scholarship cover all my costs?

Coverage varies. Read the award terms to understand whether support includes tuition, living expenses or only part of your costs, and plan for any remaining expenses.
