Studying abroad can be a significant investment, but various scholarships, grants, and financial aid options from institutions, organizations, and governments can help ease your financial burden. Scholarships not only support your long-term academic goals but also expand your professional network and enrich your overall experience.
These opportunities are incredibly diverse, ranging from arts scholarships to fully-funded MBA programs. Many universities, including those in the USA, offer full scholarships like the prestigious Foreign Fulbright Program or the Humphrey Scholarship. The Sri Lankan government also provides scholarships to ensure students gain diverse opportunities and excel in their academic careers, with financial aid available for undergraduate through master’s degrees.
