Yes, the Indian government does offer fully funded scholarships for studying abroad, but eligibility and coverage depend on the specific scheme.

- Fully funded scholarships like the National Overseas Scholarship (NOS) and Fulbright-Nehru Master's Fellowships typically cover tuition, living expenses, airfare, visa fees, and health insurance.
- Eligibility often depends on your academic background, community category, and sometimes work experience or income limits.
- Most scholarships are competitive and may require you to return to India after your studies.

If you want to explore these options further, connect with your LeapScholar counsellor for guidance on eligibility and application steps.
