NovaGrad Scholarships: Support That Helps You Apply and Enroll

Applying to universities abroad can be expensive - and for many talented students, application fees or upfront living costs become the final barrier between an offer and enrolling.

NovaGrad Scholarships are designed to remove that friction. We don't promise admission. We support your application journey by reimbursing verified costs when you apply the right way, through NovaGrad.

Scholarship Types

Two Types of Support. One Clear Process.

NovaGrad offers two forms of scholarship support, each with transparent rules and fair verification.

Tuition or Living-Expense Support

What this support is

This scholarship provides tuition and/or living expense support for a small number of students where financial support clearly bridges the gap between receiving an offer and being able to enrol.

  • Maximum support per student: up to USD $2,500
  • Awards are limited and competitive

How selection works (clear and fair)

This support is competitive. We prioritise students who:

  • Are application-ready
  • Have a realistic and well-defined university shortlist
  • Can submit a complete application via NovaGrad within stated timelines

Shortlisted students may be asked to provide additional proof to confirm eligibility and reimbursement details before support is issued.
