It’s important to note that not all scholarships require every document listed above. Sometimes, especially for lab-based PhD programs, starting with just your academic transcript can be enough to get the ball rolling. Always tailor your application according to the specific requirements of each scholarship opportunity. Best of luck in your pursuits!

Before applying, always ensure you cross-check each scholarship’s unique requirements. Best of luck with your applications!
