Will I get an offer letter with scholarships before starting the application process?
25 Jun 2026 · Answered by Pallavi Attri · 1 min read
It depends. Some scholarships, like Chevening, allow you to apply and potentially receive a scholarship offer before holding a university offer letter. However, most scholarships require you to first secure an offer from the university before you can be considered.
A few scholarships may grant provisional awards or let you apply without an offer, but typically, scholarship decisions follow after you receive your university offer letter.
If you need help identifying scholarships that fit your timeline, connect with your LeapScholar counsellor.
