If you can boldly say that you have all of the below listed requirements, then you would definitely have no problems in getting an international scholarship from the different colleges I’ll be listing.
REQUIREMENTS TO APPLY FOR SCHOLARSHIPS IN USA COLLEGES
First of all, I would like to clear the doubts you are probably having about IELTS. It is actually true that IELTS is no longer a mandatory admissions requirement at US universities for US Scholarships.
There are now a lot of fully funded scholarships that do not need IELTS, therefore, it is NOT a requirement for some schools. Note that, there are other tests like TOEFL, GMAT, GRE, and so on.
- Academic scores copy (GPA)
- Standardized test scores (SAT, ACT, GRE, GMAT score)
- Photo ID/Passport (Aadhar card in certain cases)
- Language proficiency proof (TOEFL exam score)
- Motivation letter/Statement of Purpose
- Recommendation letter
Those are the documents required for applying for international scholarships in top-notch Usa Colleges/Universities. Do you have all? Then let’s move on to the next and final step.
