The maximum scholarship amount for studying abroad depends on the specific scholarship, country, and program. Some top scholarships for Indian students offer:

- Inlaks Scholarship: Up to USD 120,000 (approx. ₹1 crore) covering tuition, living, travel, and more.
- National Overseas Scholarship: Full tuition plus USD 15,400/year for living expenses, airfare, and fees.
- DAAD (Germany): €934/month stipend plus allowances.
- Chevening (UK) and Commonwealth (UK): Full tuition, living, flights, and visa costs.
- MEXT (Japan): Monthly stipend of ¥143,000 - ¥242,000 plus tuition and travel.

Scholarship amounts and eligibility are highly competitive and subject to change. For detailed guidance on suitable options and next steps, connect with your LeapScholar counsellor.

It depends. Scholarship amounts for tuition fees around ₹25 lakh vary widely by country, university, and your academic profile.

- UK: Scholarships can range from £1,000 to £20,000 (about ₹1 lakh to ₹20 lakh) for merit-based awards. Some, like Chevening Scholarships, may cover full tuition and living expenses, but these are highly competitive.
- Germany: DAAD scholarships and others may provide full or partial funding, sometimes covering both tuition and living costs. The Deutschlandstipendium offers €300/month for strong academic records.

Scholarship availability and amounts are subject to change and depend on the program and your eligibility. For tailored options, discuss your profile and target universities with your LeapScholar counsellor.
