Eligibility for fully funded scholarships varies depending on the scholarship provider.

7. Can I Work While Receiving a Fully Funded Scholarship?
Most fully funded scholarships discourage or limit working during the scholarship period, as they are meant to allow students to focus entirely on their studies. Some programs, however, allow part-time work or offer internships as part of the scholarship package. Always check the scholarship terms to understand the specific work conditions.

9. Do Fully Funded Scholarships Require a Service Commitment?
Some fully funded scholarships require recipients to return to their home country after completing their studies and contribute to the development of their country. This is common in government-funded scholarships, where students are expected to give back to their communities after graduation. Ensure you review the terms of the scholarship carefully to understand if there are any service commitments.
10. Can I Apply for Multiple Fully Funded Scholarships?
