FAQs
1. What other types of scholarships are available?
There are several scholarship possibilities available for university students all over the world, ranging from partial scholarships that pay only a portion of your tuition to full scholarships that cover the entirety of your studies.The majority of scholarships only cover tuition, leaving students to cover their own living costs.
There are also a variety of scholarships available for international students from specific locations, as well as students studying in specific fields. Many students from underdeveloped nations, such as sections of Africa, Asia, Latin America, and Eastern Europe, as well as students from all over the world who want to study in a STEM-related subject, can apply for particular scholarships (science, technology, engineering and mathematics).
2. Can I apply for the scholarship before being accepted into a university?
If you rely on scholarship income to be able to study, you should inform the school concerned about your condition.

Many, however, will enable you to apply to a program before applying for scholarships, on the condition that you notify them as soon as possible if you must decline the position due to a lack of financing. If you do not receive the scholarship, you should still have enough time before the start of the semester to withdraw your university application or locate another source of income.

Eligibility may depend on nationality and several other requirements. For subject-specific scholarships like this, the program you are enrolling on will also affect your eligibility.
