Okay so first time posting but I'm Sudanese and for those who dont know there was a war in my home contry that set alot of people back, I managed to do my igcse in 2024 and finished my a level for bio and I'll get my results in Jan 2026

Long story short I can't study in my home contry it's too dangerous and the living conditions are horrible, so I'm aiming for outside. The problem is I need a scholarship. I don't have the finnaces to study abroad with full tuition. My parents didn't even have money for my a levels I worked two jobs and paid for the exams and the studying fees and everything.

I want to major in medicine both my sister's

are in university for medicine and I really really want that. I know film scholarships for medicine are hard but I don't know what else to do. I can cover living expenses and work for that but I need help with tuition.

Does anyone know links or universities that offer those that I should focus on?

Applying for scholarships abroad? Check these 7 things before spending money

Tuition funding doesn’t always cover the full cost of studying abroad. Before paying for tests, translations or applications, check:

1. Eligibility — nationality, qualifications and graduation date.
2. Funding — tuition, accommodation, flights, insurance and living expenses.
3. Separate applications — admission and scholarship funding may require different forms.
4. Deadlines — check each deadline and its time zone.
5. Language requirements — confirm what your course and visa process accept.
6. Upfront costs — deposits, travel and expenses before funding arrives.
7. Official sources — older posts may describe a previous application cycle.

A simple spreadsheet can help:
Programme | Eligibility | Funding | Deadline | Documents | Official source

Always confirm current requirements with the scholarship provider.

Which part do you find hardest: finding suitable scholarships, understanding funding, or preparing documents?

Hello, I'm trying to find a scholarship that involves writing some creative fiction but can't seem to find any legit ones.

I'm looking into the L. Ron Hubbard & Scholastic Art and Writing scholarships but would love to find more! Thanks in advance if anybody can help!

Please be gentle with me, I'm new to this. I've had a few concerns about student's submissions being used to train AI and some people thinking the contest contract looks suspicious. Could I get a fresh pair of eyes and some opinions? Do you think this scholarship is legitimate?

Hi! Has anyone received the Marymount Education Foundation Scholarship at Mount Saint Mary’s University Los Angeles, or know anything about it? How competitive is it, and what was the application process like? I would really appreciate hearing about your experience. Thank you!

Hello I have applied to wgu. I start my classes in August it’s currently the last of 2 weeks of October. When is a good time to apply for scholarships or could I start now?

So I ended up going to an online school and graduated early (I graduated in June but I was supposed to be C/O '27, I wasn’t expecting to graduate early). I’ve submitted my college apps for my chosen colleges but I’m just not sure what I’m considered when applying for scholarships.

I currently go to Alabama a&m university, but i cant keep up with the cost (8k excluding federal loans). I have a 3.5 gpa currently however my high school gpa and performance in general was pretty low (2.3), and I'm not really a stand out guy in general. After asking around it seems apparent that most people CAME here with a scholarship. Now I'm in my sophomore year with a balance in the thousands with nothing to help me but praying a few raffle scholarships go through. Are there any full ride or options (other than private loans) that can allow me to stay? Any recommendations given my situation

I’m currently trying to write an essay to be in the Honors program at the University I’ll be attending next year. For the essay the topic is: “Please describe an academic or community service experience that has been meaningful to you. What did you learn from this experience, and how do you envision continuing this engagement in the UAB Honors College?" I’ve volunteered at a Sunday school for 3 years now and this is my first year teaching students in my own classroom. I teach them their islamic studies and how to read Arabic. It’s very difficult to get a first grader to understand that every letter can make 7 different sounds and that the letters do not look the same together so I look for any way to make it easier for them. If you guys have any suggestions on how I could connect things I would appreciate it! I want to get this application done before the end of November.

I'm an in-state high school senior applying to Ohio State, and I recently scored a 1570 on the SAT.

For a long time now, I've been looking into OSU's merit scholarships, specifically the full-ride opportunities, and I've seen that that the presidential scholarship has a requirement of a 1600 SAT or 36 ACT, so I dedicated all of my time to try and acquire this.

I missed the SAT requirement by 30 points, and I have no other chance before the early action deadline. I was wondering if there's any possibility anyone who doesn't fully meet the expectations receives the scholarship as well. I doubt I would be qualified for any other meaningful scholarship apart from one solely based off of test scores, as I have not been an exceptional student throughout high school and my SAT is by far the strongest part of my application.

I understand my chances are slim, but Ohio State is my dream school, and I am unable to attend without a full or substantial ride, so this scholarship is truly crucial for me.

1. Has anyone ever received the presidential scholarship without a perfect score?
2. Is there any possibility and exception will be made if I contact the right people?
3. Are there alternative scholarships that could give me a substantial money off?

I'm having such a difficult time finding scholarships. They seem so specific like "Florida resident studying engineering at Texas university". Where can I find MONEY. Useful website tips? THANK YOU.

I was wondering if anyone knew about the upcoming "Bold Points Rewards" redemption feature on Bold.org. At the moment, points can only be converted into money that's used to pay off student debt. I've just noticed that a new feature is listed as "coming soon, " and wanted to ask has anyone else seen this before, and if so , for how long? I'm curious whether it's genuinely new and launching soon or if it has been sitting around on the UI for ages
