Financial aid
Financial aid is provided to students who have excellent past academic record. To apply for any kind of scholarship and financial aid students are advised to contact the university or institution in which they are planning to study and pursue the course. Students can obtain the information regarding scholarships, grants or any kind of financial aid from the respective institute. Also, be sure to visit the International Education Financial Aid (IEFA) website that provides a database of financial aid information for students who want to study in a foreign country.
The IEFA website contains a huge list of grants, scholarships, loan program and other information that is very helpful for students who are interested in studying abroad. Under the Higher Education Grants Scheme and the Vocational Education Committees Scholarship Scheme, maintenance grants are provided for undergraduate courses of at least 2 years' duration in a publicly funded third level institution. A student can even apply for tax-relief for the tuition paid for full time/part time undergraduate or postgraduate courses.
