CHAPTER ONE

The Preparation

Did you always dream about moving away from your city and studying abroad but financial problems made this dream seem impossible? Thousands of young students from all over the world are dealing with the same burden.Fortunately, scholarships are here to help out. With the right scholarship, you will be able to study abroad and achieve your academic goals while getting to experience a brand-new culture and make new friends that will last for a lifetime!

Here's the deal. Scholarships aren't simply awarded out to everyone who wants one. Aside from being qualified on papers, you also need to stand out as the perfect candidate for the scholarship. But don't fret, we're here to help you. We'll start kicking things off by getting you in the right mindset so that you can overcome any obstacles that stand your way in getting that scholarship.

The first thing that you will notice when you start applying for scholarships is that it's quite challenging, so be prepared to do some hard work.

Chances are, you will need to apply to at least half a dozen scholarships before you get an email or a call from a scholarship provider who sees potential in your application. However, you shouldn't be disappointed or discouraged if you don't get a reply after your first few submissions. Treat it as a 'practice'; the more you submit applications, the more you become good at pitching yourself.

Keep in mind that these institutions are following timelines, guidelines, and criteria in reviewing applications. At times, you might not get a reply at all. With thousands of applications they have been getting, it is understandable that they can't reply to every application.

What every student who wishes to study abroad needs to understand is that no one is going to give them a scholarship for free and that they need to work hard for it. This can mean spending your weekends adding finishing touches to your application instead of going out with your friends for a drink.

All those missed Saturdaynight out with friends will all be worth it when you get a call from the scholarship provider asking you for a video interview to get to know you better. When the work seems too hard or overwhelming, always remember the goal. Why did you want to get yourself a scholarship abroad?

And think about the amazing opportunities and experiences that studying abroad can give you.

Now that we've established that getting a scholarship requires hard work, you also need to bring out some creativity to make yourself stand out. Creating a stellar application requires determination, effort, and a little bit of humor. Be clever and think outside the box.

Statistically speaking, the odds are stacked against you when it comes to winning an overseas scholarship. You compete with thousands of students from all over the world. But, if you're flexible, you can use this to your advantage. Applying in a less-popular country for a scholarship increases your chances and lessen the competition.
