Uniqway can help you in 4 simple steps
Step 1: Choose a programme
Abroad or at home, online or offline. It doesn’t matter. What matters is that the programme meets the following 5 criteria:
Program Quality
Don’t go for just any university or college! Compare the options that are available by graduate and student reviews, relevant rankings, etc
Job Opportunities
How easy or difficult will it be for you to find a job upon graduation? Is International Relations really a good option for the job market?
Your Goals
Where are you headed? What do you want to achieve from your education?
Your Background
Have you already studied in an undergraduate programme, or have you just completed high school?
Your Budget
We get it! No one wants to think about budgets, but they are really important to ensure your success.
Step 2: Consider Scholarships
Opportunities for financial assistance
Merit/Academic Success
These scholarships are usually offered to students who have already demonstrated outstanding achievements in academia and other fields. They are often very competitive and offer the highest fee reduction schemes.
Example:
Te Paewal o te Rangi. The University of Waikato Scholarship for Outstanding Academic Achievement
Programme Specific
Some bursaries are offered only if you choose a specific programme at the university. This is done to attract more students to the less popular courses that play an essential role in society, like teaching and childcare
Example:
Postgrad Solutions Study Bursary at the University of Glasgow
Financial needs
If you can't cover the fees due to your financial situation, some universities will help you!
Example:
University of Auckland Gwynn Duncan Medical Scholarship
Sports/Athletic
More common in the USA than elsewhere, these scholarships are awarded to outstanding athletes. If you want to apply for a sports scholarship at an American university or college, you should contact uni coaches before the application period starts
Example:
Women's Swimming and Diving Scholarship at Virginia Tech.
Merit/Academic Success
Some countries use soft power to build bridges with other nations. Supporting international students is one of the soft power tools. There are scholarships offered both by the governments of students' origin and the countries where students study
Example:
Chevening Scholarship by the UK Government
Offered by international organizations
Large International political, financial, cultural, and social organizations support talented international students who struggle financially
Example:
World Bank Scholarship
Business sponsored
If a company is not tied with any particular university, they might offer grantsto support you at any school you choose.
Example:
Schlumberger Foundation. Faculty for the Future Awards
Provided by NGOs
Non-Profit Organisations that support international mobility for social causes offer bursaries to students.
Example:
International Scholarship by Rotary
Research Based Scholarships
Common for Ph.D. or Masters by research. These scholarships are usually. funded by large companies or foundations interested in the research you want to conduct. You usually get money not only for the research but also for living expenses.
Example: Kummer Innovation and Entrepreneurship Doctoral Fellows Program Sponsored by a company/organization but within one university
Sponsored by company/organization
In some cases, big companies like Nestle or well-established NGOs like the Gates Foundation sponsor less privileged talented students at prestigious universities.
Example: Gates Cambridge Scholarships for International Students
