It depends. Scholarship percentages for UK Master's programs vary widely by university, program, and specific scholarship criteria.

With your strong academics, 18 months of work experience, and pending IELTS, you may be eligible for these common options (subject to change):

- Chevening Scholarships: Fully funded, but typically require 2 years of work experience.
- Commonwealth Master's Scholarships: Fully funded for eligible Indian students.
- GREAT Scholarships: Usually £10,000 towards tuition for one-year postgraduate courses.

Actual scholarship amounts often range from partial (10-50%) to fully funded, but most university awards are partial. Your final eligibility will depend on your IELTS score and specific university requirements.

For tailored scholarship options and next steps, connect with your LeapScholar counsellor.

Yes, scholarships are available for UK universities based on your academic profile.

With a 74.9% graduation grade and 13 months of work experience, you can be considered for several merit-based scholarships offered to Indian students pursuing a Master's degree. Many UK universities assess your overall profile, including academics and work experience, not just grades.

Scholarship options and eligibility criteria vary by university and are subject to change each year. While your grade is slightly below the typical first-class standard, your work experience and strong academic record can strengthen your application.

Yes, scholarships are available for Indian students pursuing a Master's in Civil Engineering in the UK, but eligibility and amounts vary.

- Major scholarships like Chevening and Commonwealth Master's cover full tuition and living costs, but require a strong academic record (often above 6.2 CGPA), work experience, or other criteria.
- University-specific awards may offer £5,000 - £12,500, with some automatic for Indian students in engineering.
- GREAT Scholarships typically provide £10,000 towards tuition.
- IELTS-based scholarships can add £3,000 - £10,000 if you meet language requirements.

Your CGPA (6.2/10) may limit eligibility for some fully funded awards, but you can still apply to university and partial scholarships. Many require an IELTS score, so plan to take the test soon.
