University Scholarships - One of the best sources of financial help can be the university which you attend. Universities provide support through scholarships which are offered based on merit and need.

For example:

Tata Scholarship at Cornell University: A USD 25 million trust fund provides the backing to some 20 Indian students. To qualify, you must first be admitted to a Cornell undergraduate course and then apply for financial assistance based on your needs.

And,

The British Council - British Council recently announced the largest number of scholarships awarded in a year in India, offering around 370 scholarships valued at almost one million pounds. The program will have the participation of 36 institutions of UK, and scholarships will be awarded for 260 undergraduate and postgraduate studies.

Current Institute financing - The institution in which you are currently participating can be a source of financial assistance. It is important to talk to the principal and department heads to see if there are scholarships available and what their admission criteria are.
Community Organizations - Very often community groups encourage and support outstanding members in their academic activities.

For example:

Mustard Seed Foundation (Harvey Fellows Program) - offers scholarships for Christian students in higher education at the best universities in areas considered insufficiently represented by Christians

Student Loan

There are many private sector or public sector banks and companies which provide loan to students at low interest rates in order to study abroad. At the time of taking educational loan co- signature is necessary either with parents or legal representative.

Managing your finances starts when you step out of school and start attending college. One of the best partners that help you do that is a perfect credit card , Banks also provide the student credit cards with various benefits . A card that fulfils all the needs of a student’s life while teaching an individual to set up a financial routine

Student Prize

As the name represent the whole idea. Sometimes there are prizes awarded to the students, it will help as a financial aid for studying purpose or you can use it for other purposes. There is no minimum or maximum amount for awarding a prize.

Once you get the educational loan than you get enough time to pay back the loan. It is the best way to manage finance for your studies in abroad.
