Dear Fatima, for being eligible for any scholarship, the basic criteria remains that you should have excellent Accademic record and genuine financial need. You should have gotten admitted to a highly reputable University or Programme. For example, Aga Khan Foundation provides no. of scholarships for candidates who have no means of financing their studies. IRC scholarship offered by University of Virginia offers scholarship for Master's programmes. There are subject specific scholarships and also country based scholarships. Every scholarship has its own other criteria.
