Scholarship FAQs

Does Aafaq Global guarantee scholarships?

No. We provide scholarship guidance and help students explore relevant opportunities, but scholarship decisions are made by the scholarship provider or university.

Are all scholarships fully funded?

No. Some cover full tuition or multiple costs, while others provide partial tuition support or other financial assistance. (Study UK)

Can Bachelor's students get scholarships?

Yes, some undergraduate scholarships and bursaries exist, although availability varies by destination and institution. For the UK, undergraduate funding for international students exists but is generally less common than postgraduate funding. (Study UK)

Can Master's students get fully funded scholarships?

Some opportunities can provide substantial or full funding, but they are competitive and have specific eligibility criteria.

Do I need an admission offer before applying for a scholarship?

It depends on the scholarship. Some require an offer from a university, while others have different application procedures.

Can I apply for more than one scholarship?

Potentially, depending on the rules of each scholarship. Students should check whether simultaneous applications or other funding restrictions apply.

Can Aafaq Global apply for the scholarship on my behalf?

We can provide guidance and application support where appropriate, but the student should provide truthful information and comply with the scholarship provider's application rules.

Can I get a scholarship if my grades aren't excellent?

Possibly. Different scholarships consider different criteria, so academic performance is not necessarily the only factor.
