Before you apply
Scholarships are competitive: meeting the eligibility rules does not guarantee an award. Always confirm the details and dates on the official website before applying.
- Check who can apply: nationality, residency and the level you will study.
- Check whether you need a university offer before applying, or apply for the scholarship first.
- Compare what each award covers: tuition, living costs, travel, insurance and accommodation are listed separately.
- Note the deadline and prepare documents early; many programmes ask for references and a personal statement.
