Expert Answers
Which academic scores and IELTS, GRE or GMAT results do I need as an Indian student for a tuition-free country?

What approximate annual tuition fee will I pay as an international undergraduate at Nanyang Technological University?
→In the 2026 figures, most subsidised international undergraduate programs at Nanyang Technological University cost about SGD 18,050 to 21,400 a year, and non-subsidised programs about SGD 36,350. Fees vary by program, nationality and Tuition Grant status, so check the official page.
Do German universities give scholarships to me as an Indian computer science student?
→Yes, but most funding comes from national schemes rather than universities. The Deutschlandstipendium pays EUR 300 monthly (approx INR 31,900) once you are enrolled at a participating university, while DAAD's STEM master's scholarship (EUR 992 monthly) does not list India among its countries, so check DAAD first.
Should I target Canadian universities with scholarships for my computer science studies?
→Yes. Waterloo, UBC and Toronto list entrance awards or graduate funding that Indian students can try, while Manitoba's Graduate Fellowship lists CAD 20,000 yearly (approx INR 13.6 L) for two years of MSc study. Research-based master's programs usually carry far better funding than course-based ones.
