Official government, schools and reputable organizations’ websites are the safest route in your scholarship search. Can I use my trial results to apply for a scholarship? Provisional or trial results are usually not sufficient enough for scholarship applications. Scholarship applications usually require a certified true copy of your actual results. What types of scholarships can I apply for? There is actually a wide range of scholarships available that you can consider. Partial scholarships cover a part of your tuition fees while full scholarships cover the cost for the whole program. Most scholarships do not cover living costs. There are also scholarships that cater to local and international students as well as scholarships offered for a particular field of study. For example, there are certain scholarships that are specifically for students from developing countries. Where can I find scholarship opportunities? You can see information from your chosen university. Information on scholarships will usually be listed on the university’s website as well as prospectus. You will also be able to find contact information if you have any questions on scholarships. For scholarships offered by the government and organizations/charities, you can head over to the relevant websites. There are also scholarships search services from which you can track down information to fund your studies. It may require some time and work to look for scholarships that you are eligible for, so be patient and don’t give up searching.

You should inform your university if you need to rely on a scholarship to fund your studies. Some universities offer ‘fully funded’ places where applicants need to have sufficient funding to gain acceptance into the school. However, many institutions will allow you to apply for a program before you have the scholarship with the condition that you inform them if you are unable to accept the place due to lack of funds. If you are unable to secure a scholarship, you should have time to withdraw your university application. You can also try looking for an alternative way to fund your studies before the term commences. If the application requires an essay, what should I include in it? Scholarship providers want to know why they should give the funds to you. Your essay should help you to stand out from the rest of the applicants. You can mention your achievements, ambitions, interests as well as why you want to enrol in a particular course. Where can I get help with my scholarship applications? You can get in touch with the scholarship provider if you need more information about a particular scholarship.
