Scholarship Opportunities for Bangladeshi Students to Study Abroad

Unlock financial support for your international education—merit-based, need-based, and country-specific scholarships made accessible with expert guidance from Career Paths.

Why Scholarships Matter?

With the continuous rise in tuition fees and other associated expenses, the dream of studying abroad is becoming challenging and, in some cases, out of reach for many aspiring students. It discourages them from applying for higher studies to a great extent. While student loans may offer short-term relief, they make students suffer in the long run. When the thought of paying your debt constantly echoes inside your mind, it can be difficult to fully concentrate on academic studies.

To keep your mind at ease, you can explore a wide range of prestigious scholarships and avail one of those by adopting effective strategies and presenting a compelling case. Securing a scholarship not only reduces the financial stress but also fuels your ambition, motivating you to leave no stone unturned in your search for academic and professional excellence. Scholarships are more than just financial aid; they are a powerful recognition of your potential and endless worth. Freed from the worry of paying your tuition fees, you can solely dedicate your time to participating in career development courses, leadership events, seminars best suited to your programs, research projects, and other productive activities that resonate with your ambitions.

Eligibility & Required Documents

Scholarships are highly competitive, and to filter out undeserving candidates during the initial selection round, scholarship providers often set specific eligibility criteria. These requirements may vary depending on the scholarship you are applying to, but here is a summary of some of the common scholarship requirements:

1. Strong academic merit
One of the key factors that the scholarship committee considers is outstanding academic scores. Under the eligibility criteria, you may have noticed the university specifies a minimum GPA. While some may believe that GPA doesn’t matter, it’s worth recognizing that GPA is a reflection of your dedication and hard work during your academic studies.

2. Good Scores in the International Standard Exam
To increase your chances of obtaining the scholarship, it is essential to sit for the international standard exams, including the SAT, GRE, GMAT, and more, to show your acumen to excel in the specified field. A strong score stands out in your scholarship application and makes you an appealing candidate.

3. Voluntary and Leadership experience
The most significant advantage of having voluntary and leadership experience is that it demonstrates your capabilities and expertise to balance academic studies and extracurricular activities effectively, which makes a strong case to the scholarship committee in your favour.

4. High English Proficiency Test score
If you are applying for a scholarship to study in an English-speaking country where the program is taught in English, the eligibility criteria often explicitly mention a minimum IELTS score. So go through each and every point carefully.

5. Letter of Recommendation
A letter of recommendation adds value to your scholarship application as it reconfirms your eligibility and suitability for the program you intend to pursue. It can be taken from your previous academic institution or any relevant organisations where you have worked recently.
