With an overall 8 CGPA, you are eligible for many merit-based scholarships when applying for studies abroad. Scholarship amounts and eligibility criteria vary by country and institution, but typically:

- UK: Scholarships like Chevening cover full tuition, living allowance, and travel. Strong academics and leadership experience are needed; some require work experience.
- Australia: Australia Awards Scholarships cover full tuition and living expenses. A strong academic record (typically minimum CGPA 3.0) is required.
- Canada: Major awards like the Vanier Canada Graduate Scholarships offer up to CAD 50,000/year for doctoral students, usually with a higher CGPA requirement.
- Germany: DAAD Scholarships often require a minimum CGPA of 3.0 and a strong academic profile.

Scholarship amounts and criteria are subject to change each year. Many universities also offer their own merit-based scholarships, which vary widely.
