The bachelor’s (undergrad) degree scholarships for the batch of 2024-2024 academic sessions in a variety of degree levels (BA, BS, BE, BSC, BCOM) and subjects are open internationally for students.
When it comes to financing higher education, students have three choices and they usually make their decision by combining all three of them. These options are loans, grants, and scholarships. Loans are easy for students to get but they need to be paid back eventually. With soaring inflation and interest rates, it gets pretty hard for students to amortize loans as they have to give a big chunk out of their monthly salaries toward paying the loan back.
Grants are for those students who demonstrate financial need. These are need-based and are primarily given to students after thorough fact-checking.
Scholarships, on the other hand, are usually given based on the students’ past academic records and performance on entry tests. There are hundreds of scholarships available for undergraduate or bachelor’s students. These are not just reserved for students who have straight As, instead, a lot of them have fairly lenient criteria.
There are a lot of platforms that offer Undergrad scholarships like government organizations, private corporations, NGOs, advocacy groups, etc. All of these platforms offer scholarships to a diverse group of students. Your best bet is to apply to all those relevant to you.
