How to prepare a strong application

  1. Read the eligibility rules first, and apply only where you qualify.
  2. Prepare your ID, transcripts and language results in advance.
  3. Write about your goal, and how the program helps you reach it.
  4. Ask a teacher or employer for a reference early.
  5. Note every deadline, and submit a few days before it.

Protect yourself from scholarship scams

Real scholarships never ask for an application fee by phone or social media. Check the official website of the organization before you share documents.
