Can you explain how scholarships work according to CGPA in UAE?
Yes, many UAE universities offer scholarships based on your Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA).
- Scholarships are usually tiered: higher CGPA can mean a larger tuition fee waiver.
- For example, some universities offer a 20% tuition fee waiver if you maintain a minimum CGPA of 3.6 for two consecutive semesters.
- Others may offer a 10% waiver for a CGPA of 3.5 or above.
- To keep the scholarship, you must consistently meet the required CGPA and often enroll in a minimum number of credit hours each semester.
Some scholarships may also look at other factors like past academic performance or financial need, but strong CGPA is key for academic merit awards.
