Will my GPA affect my chances of admission and scholarships for masters abroad in UK?
Yes, your GPA will affect your chances of admission and scholarships for master's programs in the UK.
Most UK universities look for at least a UK Upper Second Class Honours (2:1), which is roughly 60 - 69% or a GPA of 3.3 - 3.7/4.0. Your CGPA of 6.5/10 (about 2.6/4.0) is below this, so options for competitive programs and scholarships may be limited.
Some universities do accept a Lower Second Class Honours (2:2), around 50 - 59% or 2.7 - 3.0/4.0. With your GPA, you might be eligible for these, but admission will be more competitive and scholarship options fewer.
Highlighting your six years of work experience and achieving a strong IELTS score can help strengthen your application.
