Everyone, our first scholarship of the day is a financial aid. It's at Johns Hopkins University
0:07
It's a really good university in the United States. It has a lot of Nobel Prize winners and its alumni
0:15
Basically, this is for bachelors. It's full funding, meaning it covers more, you're welcome
0:22
It covers more than just tuition fees. And as you can see, we have no specific nationalities
0:30
all subjects offer that the school are eligible, accepted. Basically, a lot of people ask about, like, I'm from this country
0:38
I want to study this, can I find scholarships? As you can see, and as you will see
0:42
most scholarships don't have any requirements in terms of nationalities or subjects
0:49
As you can see, we have deadlines here. They're way in the future
0:53
And if you want to find the perfect scholarship for yourself, go to our website, GlobalSchoolshops.com, and use our free search tool

1:04

1:14
what it covers is it covers 100% of the students demonstrated needs. Now, what does that even mean
1:21
Like what is what is a demonstrated need? Basically, when you apply to this university
1:25
this is like this goes for all financial aids and a lot of universities in the United States has
1:32
have financial aids basically when you apply to the university you tell them that you need financial
1:38
aid you say like I cannot cover all my expenses for this education so I need financial aid
1:44
you have to tell them this when you apply for applied for the university and then
1:50
university takes your information like information about your family is financial financial situation, like their income, their tax information, and et cetera
2:00
Basically, there's something called a CSS profile. Hang on. Let me just show you what it actually is
2:09
Yeah, this is CSS. Basically, it is a college scholarship service, I believe
2:18
Basically, you create a profile here, right? And then you give them information
2:22
As you can see, each year CSS profile unlocks access to more than 10
2:25
billion dollars in non-federal aid to thousands of students. Basically, you give them information
2:31
about your family's financial situation. And then you use this platform to apply for financial
2:38
aids. So the university takes that information and basically estimates how much your family can
2:46
contribute to your expenses during your education. And let's say you need to have at least like
2:53
$100,000 every year, right? and they say, okay, your family can cover about 40% of that
3:02
And if you get this scholarship they going to cover the university is going to cover the rest of that They going to give you about Basically it going to cover everything that you show is your financial needs but your family cannot cover
3:19
So basically, that's it. But, like, again, as I said, you have to tell them this before going to the university
3:26
So basically, when you apply for the university, you need to tell them you need financial aid
3:30
Anyway, the university is a good university again in the United States
3:35
Another very large university, it's in Baltimore. There are three different scholarships in this university
3:41
We have information about like admission process, about deadlines here. And as you can see, tuition fees are quite high
3:48
$60,000 are high even for US standards, which is already high. Like US has the highest kind of one of the highest tuition fees, a level of tuition fees
4:00
But this is high even for United States, so about $60,000. Right
4:08
And if you want to learn more, like, see where the university is or what it looks like
4:13
We can look into that on Google Maps. As you can say, it's in Baltimore. Right
4:21
Here it is. It's not a very expensive place. And this is the university, Johns Hopkins University
4:27
If you want to study in the United States, it might be a good pick for you. it's good in terms of diversity either
4:36
So, yeah, it's a good university, again, has quite a lot of Nobel Prize winners and it's alumni
4:43
So, yeah, a good university. So basically, this is the school. If you want to learn more about the scholarship
4:50
you can, under the eligibility, build the criteria, go to university's page for this scholarship
4:56
Now, they have this weird thing that, like, they almost hide the information all the way down here
5:05
Where it is? International students frequently asked questions. Wait, now, hang on, where was it
5:15
Financial aid. Understanding financial aid. No, they also had financial aid frequently asked questions
5:26
I guess. and yeah here it is okay as you can see we have frequently asked questions
5:34
and these cover quite a lot of the information about financial aid for other universities as well
5:38
for example like is financial aid available for international students yes how the international students apply for financial aid
5:46
do financial circumstances impact the admission process as you can see so this school
5:52
is need aware for international students meaning that financial circumstances are considered
5:57
in the admissions process. Basically, there are quite a lot of universities that are need aware for international students and need blind for domestic students
6:06
What that means is for example I have a question like if we are eligible criteria We will get scholarship or not They will evaluate then select student
6:22
If you are, I'm not sure what is the question is. Like, yeah, if you are eligible, like you have the eligibility criteria
6:31
You can apply for the scholarship. Then they will evaluate you and then select students
6:36
Also, if I got scholarship, what about the administration? what about the admissions? If you are talking about this
6:42
this, as you can see, about 10% of international students receive financial aid
6:49
But like for this specific scholarship, you apply for the scholarship when you apply for the university
6:58
So there is no chance that you will get the scholarship but won't be admitted to the university
7:03
So like scholarships are obviously more competitive than the admission process. So, like, if you get the scholarship
7:12
you also will get the admission. Amen, like, correct me if I'm wrong
7:18
Are there any exceptions to this rule, like where we can get the scholarship
7:22
Or maybe am I misunderstanding the question? Maybe you can get a better idea about the question
7:30
Yeah, so it doesn't make sense for anyone to get the scholarship
7:34
without getting admitted, because if you're not going to study at a specific university, why would they give you a scholarship
7:44
So I think that just goes without saying. But as far as the eligibility criteria, even if you meet them, that doesn't necessarily mean that you will get a scholarship
7:56
The eligibility criteria are generally the minimum requirement for anyone to be considered for the scholarship
8:05
but they're not necessarily the optimal, whether it's academic results or extracurriculars
8:22
So whatever you find there is just the minimum. And then based on the applicants pool, they will decide who deserves the scholarships more
8:32
So if you have an applicant's pool of people who have perfect GPAs
8:39
then they would select, I mean, in order, I mean, in addition to other things
8:46
they would select that those top 10% of applicants. Yeah. Yeah, provided that they also need financial aid in this case
8:57
and in the same vein, if the applicants have low GPAs
9:07
then they would consider that pool of applicants as well. So they can't really, they don't have much choice there
9:16
But the reality of things is that all applicants have great GPAs they have great extracurriculars These scholarships are quite competitive
9:25
So you need to take that into consideration. The fact that you meet, for example, a GPA of 3.2 and then I don't know, maybe there is an age requirement, and then maybe you have standardized tests, results
9:42
maybe you have a good eyelids result. It doesn't mean that you will necessarily get the scholarship
9:50
because there are probably people who have higher scores than you and they will be awarded the scholarship
9:59
and you won't be in the top applicants that would get it
10:06
because the places are limited and the scholarships are limited as well
10:10
yeah so like the larger the scholarship the more competitive it is i am bachelor's and when should
10:19
they apply like after completing degree or during degree um so if you are talking about like a scholarship
10:25
for bachelor's degree um i don't think because i think they're asking for like masters for another
10:35
degree, like, because you cannot complete, like, you cannot apply for a scholarship for
10:41
bachelor's degree after you complete the bachelor's degree. Like, like, if you are looking for scholarships that you can apply for now for bachelor's degree
10:54
like some scholarships will accept that, like, based on the university, based on what
11:00
scholarship you are interested in. Some scholarships are available for people. who are not new students who are older than university
11:10
maybe it's not your first year or maybe you're a transfer student
11:15
but quite a lot of the, quite a lot of the scholarships are like for
11:20
for bachelors at least, you need to apply for them when you are in your first year
11:25
like when you're a first year student. Amen, and what do you think about this one? This question
11:33
Yeah, so if you're doing a bachelor's, degree, I think the best course of action is to just apply for a master's degree abroad
11:42
because there are probably more opportunities there. There are assistantships opportunities as well
11:52
So I think once you finish your bachelor's degree, you can apply for a master's degree
12:00
and apply for scholarships at the same time. It is still quite competitive
12:05
The scholarships are not that available. But I think if we factor in assistantships for graduates
12:16
I think there are slightly more chances of getting funding than you would at an undergraduate level
