Yes, receiving a scholarship of ten lakhs will reduce the amount you need to show for your UK student visa.

You must demonstrate funds for:
- Outstanding tuition fees (total tuition minus your scholarship)
- Living expenses (currently £1,329/month in London or £1,023/month outside London, up to 9 months; subject to change)

Your scholarship letter must clearly state the amount, duration, and any conditions. You only need to show proof for the remaining tuition and required living costs after accounting for your scholarship.

If you need help calculating your exact fund requirement, please connect with your LeapScholar counsellor.
