First, however, you can check your options with a draft. Anyway, the scholarships are primarily merit-based. Therefore, if you wish to get a scholarship covering a big part of your finances, you better score quality marks ahead of your superiors.

 

Also, scholarships are generally applicable to a degree level. What it means, a scholarship will be applied for a master's degree, or say, a bachelor's or even doctoral ones. In very few cases, they are meant to pursue a particular area of study like medicine, technology, business etc. However, it is a common misconception that courses have specific scholarships.
