Typical GPA Requirements:


- Most Merit-Based Scholarships:
Generally, a minimum GPA of 6.0 to 7.0 on a 7.0 scale (which is roughly equivalent to 70-85% or a distinction/first class in Indian grading) is required.

A strong academic record is essential; while a specific GPA is not always stated, a distinction average or above (usually 70% or higher) is expected.
