Education funding can be a concern for some students, however, don't let this keep you from having one of the most memorable experiences of your life. Every year the admissions committee offers several scholarship grants to students from different backgrounds. Some of these are merit based scholarships, while others are awarded based on non-academic activities. Studying abroad does not have to be expensive, there are several ways on how you can get maximum funding for an overseas education.
Apply Early
Some universities may require you to submit scores for standardized tests, therefore it is best that you apply at the earliest as these test scores can be a deciding factor for winning scholarships. Staying on top of your deadlines and applying early on gives you more scholarships to choose from, thereby increasing your chances of getting a scholarship.
Apply To A Variety Of Scholarships
One way of getting maximum funding for a study abroad program is by applying to several scholarships at a time. Scholarships are awarded to students on the basis of their academic achievement, hobby or extracurricular activities. Applying to these different types of scholarships will increase your chances of winning atleast one of them.
Follow Instructions Carefully
When applying for a scholarship, read the instructions carefully and provide information that is needed. If you are required to submit all your relevant documents before a certain time period, ensure that you do so.
Personal Statement
Your personal statement is an opportunity for you to stand out from other potential candidates. It is a vital part of your application process and requires you to be honest and truthful while writing it.
Letters Of Recommendation
Admission officers want to know the type of person you are, and recommendation letters provide insight on just that. A compelling recommendation goes a long way and will provide you with maximum funding.
Extra Curricular Activities
Active participation in extracurricular activities or volunteer work puts you at an advantage with the admissions office; it shows how easily you can adapt to any given situation.
Review Your Application
Before you submit your application, check to see that you have answered every question, an incomplete application could cost you a scholarship. Moreover, it is recommended that you set aside some time to check for any spelling errors you may have made. Remember an error free application increases your chances of a scholarship.
