Check whether tuition is fully waived, partly covered, or limited to specified programmes and semesters.

Monthly allowance

Confirm the amount, payment schedule, eligibility conditions and whether it is intended to cover living expenses.

Housing and health cover

Accommodation may be provided or supported by a contribution. Check insurance scope, exclusions and any student-paid costs.

Travel and one-time costs

Airfare, visa, document legalization, deposits and local transport are not automatically included in every scholarship.

Renewal and academic conditions

A sensible application plan · 03

Build your application in four moves

These are preparation steps, not a promise of admission. The scholarship body or university makes all final eligibility and award decisions.

MOVE 01

Check your route

Confirm nationality rules, degree level, age or subject conditions, and whether the route is embassy-, university- or partner-led.

MOVE 02

Shortlist carefully

Match your academic history to eligible subjects, institutions and language of instruction. Avoid choosing by country alone.

MOVE 03

Prepare evidence

Request transcripts, references and translations early. Follow the exact naming, format, notarization and upload rules.

MOVE 04

Submit and track

Apply only through the authorized channel, save receipts and check official email/portal updates for interview or next steps.

Preparation checklist · 04

Documents to start organizing

Not every item is required by every programme. Treat this as a preparation list, then use the official call’s checklist as the final authority.

Valid passport / IDCertificates & transcriptsRecent photographCV / résuméStudy or research planPersonal statementRecommendation lettersLanguage evidenceTranslations / attestationsMedical forms if requested

Never submit original documents or pay a third party based only on an unofficial message. Confirm portal addresses, fees, document handling and deadlines with the scholarship provider or institution.

Clear answers · 05

Scholarship questions

Always use the latest official call when programme rules and general guidance differ.

Are the listed scholarships open right now?

Application calls open at different times and can vary by country, degree level and track. This page does not claim that a call is currently open. Check the official programme website for the live cycle and local deadlines.

Does “fully funded” mean I will have no expenses?

Not necessarily. Tuition, stipend, travel, housing and insurance are separate benefit categories, and some awards provide only part of a student’s total cost. Read the award terms and plan for costs that are not listed as covered.

Can I apply to more than one scholarship?

That depends on each programme’s rules and your ability to meet separate applications, nominations and timelines. Check restrictions on simultaneous awards and disclose other funding if asked.

Can Al Fursan Consultancy guarantee a scholarship?

No consultant can guarantee admission or a scholarship decision. Al Fursan Consultancy can provide guidance and application-preparation support; decisions are made by the scholarship authority or institution.

What should I send for an initial profile review?

Share your target degree, subject, country preferences, latest qualification and approximate grades through the contact page. Do not send sensitive identity documents until you know the approved and secure submission process.

Make your next step an informed one.
