Yes, scholarships are available for master's programs abroad, including in Canada and New Zealand. With your strong academic record (8.5 GPA) and 6 years of work experience, you are a competitive candidate for merit-based scholarships.
- Academic excellence (like your GPA) is a key factor.
- English proficiency (IELTS) is usually required; most scholarships expect a 6.5 - 7.5 band.
- Work experience strengthens your application, especially for research-focused scholarships.
- Quality of application - including your Statement of Purpose and recommendations - also matters.
Scholarship availability and criteria are subject to change.
