Restricted Scholarship Application: Fill & Download for Free

The benefit of completing the demographic section of your college application is that it may offer opportunities of interest to Indian students, such as campus clubs and minors, second-language resources and restricted scholarships.I can see no downside to providing this information, unless you’re simply a very private person. I can’t imagine an instance where it might disadvantage you.

Thanks for A2A!First things first, I am not from IIT and the answer I give purely reflects my opinion only.What you have heard about the scholarships is right! Generally for an MS program, scholarships are not plenty and hence would be difficult to secure one.Having said that, it isn't an impossible task! You need to understand how scholarships work in different universities. Mostly, the scholarships are provided by the specific department you would be applying to or by the engineering/science/business school you would be applying to and every department/school/university would have their own way of accepting scholarship applications.Let me share you my scenario,Out of the 5 admits I have, I received scholarships from 2 universities, TAMU & UTD.With respect to TAMU, I didn't have to apply separately for funding. While on the other hand, UTD had a separate scholarship application, essays and this scholarship was restricted to only B-School applicants.From my analysis, almost everyone with a 310+ GRE score and a good overall profile got the UTD scholarship. With respect to TAMU, there wasn't a pattern! But again, mostly, people who applied in the priority deadline and had a good overall profile got the scholarships.The Fix :There isn't a step by step procedure to get a scholarship! But, you can probably do your part fine in time which may enhance your chance of getting a scholarship.IIT is indeed a big brand name and if you are one of those good performing students, you should be having a headstart against most of your peer applicants. Besides, try to maintain a good consistent profile and apply in the priority deadlines of universities to stand a higher chance.Hope this helps! All the very best!

That depends on the restrictions and conditions of each scholarship. You have to study them to know how each handles this question. It also depends on wether hyun are in high school seeking college scholarship or in college seeking a graduate scholarship.
