Need-based scholarship grants

Need-based scholarship grants are given to provide support to degree-program students working on an academic paper such as a thesis or a dissertation. Like merit scholarships, an excellent academic record is required. Students can apply for a need-based scholarship grant twice a year, while merit scholarships are only granted once annually.
