Your IELTS score is required for most English-language scholarships. Plan your test date accordingly.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can international students apply for government scholarships in other countries?▾
Yes, most government scholarships are specifically designed for international students. Eligibility depends on your nationality, the destination country's bilateral agreements, and the specific scholarship criteria.
Is the DAAD scholarship available to students from my country?▾
DAAD scholarships are available to students from most countries worldwide, though specific programs and funding levels vary. Check the official DAAD website (daad.de) for current eligible countries and open programs.
What GPA is typically required for merit-based scholarships?▾
Most competitive merit scholarships require a minimum GPA equivalent of 3.3–3.7/4.0 (approximately 75–85% or higher on most scales). Full-funding government scholarships are generally more selective. Always check specific criteria.

When should I start applying for scholarships?▾
As early as possible. Government scholarships like Chevening open 12–18 months before the study start date. University scholarships often have the same deadline as program applications.
What is a full-funding scholarship?▾
A fully funded scholarship typically covers tuition fees, a monthly living stipend, health insurance, and sometimes travel costs. What is included varies by scholarship — read the official terms carefully.
