It depends on each university’s criteria and the specific scholarship. Most universities list internal and external scholarships on their official portals, where you can check eligibility by creating a profile and matching your academic, professional, and personal details.

- Internal scholarships: Usually based on your academic record, program, and sometimes work experience. Departmental scholarships or assistantships may also be available.
- External scholarships: Often have separate eligibility, such as specific fields, nationalities, or professional backgrounds.

Requirements and deadlines are subject to change. For personalized guidance and to identify scholarships you may qualify for, connect with your LeapScholar counsellor.
