Can I get a scholarship in the USA?

General Forum

I have a 6.5 IELTS score and a 3.40 GPA in 12th grade. Do I have a chance of getting a scholarship to study in the USA?

Scholarships for international students are tough to get, especially for undergrad programs. Most scholarships are highly competitive and go to students with a 4.0 GPA or exceptional extracurriculars. Also, IELTS scores don’t really influence scholarship decisions. I hope this helps!

Yes, you can get merit-based scholarships covering up to 70% of fees, depending on the school. However, for full-ride scholarships, you’ll need to apply to elite schools like Harvard, MIT, Stanford, NYU, or UPenn. Best of luck!

The University of Rochester offers great scholarships, but you’ll need excellent grades and high SAT scores to qualify.
