Always check the specific conditions of your scholarship before taking up part-time work.
6. What GPA Do I Need for a PhD Scholarship?
Many PhD scholarships require a minimum GPA of around 3.5 on a 4.0 scale, although some may require a higher GPA depending on the institution or scholarship program. However, research experience, a strong proposal, and other achievements can sometimes compensate for a lower GPA.
