Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, there are lots of scholarships and other types of financial aid on offer (up to 100% of tuition and sometimes partial to full living expenses are also covered). One form of financial aid which is particularly distinctive to the US is associated with “need-blind admission”. This term means an institution has an official policy of not considering applicants’ financial resources when deciding whether to offer them a place. Several public universities offer in-state tuition to deserving/meritorious international students.

Many other US universities also offer generous scholarships and other forms of funding. So even if you don’t see a need-blind admission or full-need policy indicated, don’t let the high tuition fees and other costs deter you from applying. It’s no secret that the US is one of the most expensive nations in which to pursue higher education, but don't let that put you off, as there are hundreds of opportunities to gain funding for your studies here.

As an international student, you won’t be eligible for funding intended specifically for US nationals. However, as US universities prioritize internationalization, the number of international scholarships to study in the US has grown.

Scholarships at the master’s level are not available as widely as they are at the undergraduate or doctoral level. Students would be better served to plan their expenses for the duration of their courses. Merit-based scholarships are much more commonly offered by private universities than public ones. Graduate students looking to earn a supplemental income can do so in the form of on campus jobs and assistantships, but they are competitive and mostly for currently studying students. However, the return on investment for a US degree is unmatched by any other in the world.

Students who wish to apply for scholarships or financial aid at a US university can seek guidance from college financial aid officers or refer to the information available on college websites. Scholarships in the USA vary according to the field of study and requirements such as a minimum GPA or specific test scores. It is advisable for students to gather information on scholarships early in the application process with the help of a knowledgeable overseas education consultant, as there are no general criteria for qualifying for scholarships.
