The Scholarships & the
financial aid-fee waivers that are awarded to
International Students are merit / need based. A candidate
with strong academics, good performance on standardized
exams & extra curricular achievements would be eligible
for scholarship awards or any financial assistance. To
benefit from these opportunities, one has to make sure to
send all the required documents by particular deadlines.
In addition to this, the presentation of the application
package is also important because one is judged by the
image one projects. There are various types of
Scholarships:
Fellowship/ Scholarship:
This is usually offered on the student's ability,
competence & performance.
Graduate Assistantship:
Generally it may involve a teaching or research
assistantship. Student who receive aid, do so in the
form of assistantship i.e. cash stipend or a tuition fee
waiver or reduced tuition fee.
Sports Scholarship:
Though seldom offered to international students,
athletic or sports scholarships are available in a wide
range to outstanding and talented athletes.
