Study in USA: Top Scholarships for Indian Students to Cover Major Expenses

Planning to study in America? These scholarships can help Indian students manage major education and living expenses.

Studying in the US can be expensive, but scholarships and financial aid may help cover tuition, living costs, travel and other expenses.

A “fully funded” scholarship does not always cover every expense, so students should carefully check the benefits and eligibility before applying.

Fulbright-Nehru Fellowships: These fellowships support eligible Indian students, researchers and professionals pursuing study or research opportunities in the US.

Harvard University Financial Aid: Harvard provides need-based financial aid to eligible international students based on their financial circumstances.

Yale University Financial Aid: Yale offers need-based scholarships to international students and says eligible students can have 100% of demonstrated financial need met.

MIT Financial Aid: MIT provides need-based scholarships and grants to eligible undergraduate students, with substantial tuition support for qualifying families.

AAUW International Fellowships: These fellowships support eligible women who are not US citizens or permanent residents and are pursuing graduate or postgraduate study in America.

Hubert Humphrey Fellowship: This 10-month, non-degree programme supports experienced professionals with benefits that may include tuition, stipend, airfare, health insurance and books.

Before applying, compare each scholarship’s eligibility, duration, application requirements and coverage to understand exactly which expenses are supported.
