Frequently Asked Questions
What does research based mean for a scholarship?
It describes the main way the supported program is delivered. The scholarship may still have separate rules on residence, attendance, travel or host-institution participation, so check the individual opportunity before applying.
Does research based change scholarship funding?
Potentially. Funding can depend on whether the student must relocate, travel, use a host institution or study remotely. Review tuition, living support, travel, insurance and any costs not covered for the specific scholarship.
