Financial support can be a key factor in your university journey. This segment provides a curated list of local and international scholarship opportunities, including merit-based awards and financial aid. Explore the available options and take note of specific eligibility requirements and deadlines to help fund your tertiary education.
These scholarships are awarded to students who demonstrate exceptional excellence in academic or non-academic fields, such as leadership, sports, or the arts. These scholarships are highly competitive and are intended to recognize outstanding talent. For students in the IB Diploma program, aiming for a score of minimum 40 out of 42 (predicted or final) is highly recommended to significantly increase the chances of receiving a high-value award.
These scholarships are designed to provide financial assistance to students who may otherwise face barriers to accessing higher education. They are awarded based on a family’s financial situation rather than academic performance alone. To evaluate eligibility, institutions typically require detailed financial documentation, such as parents' bank statements or proof of income, to ensure the aid is allocated to those who need it most.
Scholarships at UK and Australian universities are primarily merit-based and directly provided by the university. For IB students, these typically require a predicted or final score of 40 points or higher.
Generally, the higher a university’s global ranking, the more competitive the requirements for scholarship. It is important to note that these are usually partial tuition waivers, ranging from 10% to 30% rather than 'full-ride' (100%) scholarships. These deductions are often applied directly to your tuition fees for either the first year or the duration of the program. There is usually no separate application as you will be automatically considered when you apply to the university.
