Scholarship given to students are mainly on a merit basis and it is mostly awarded to needy but brilliant students.

Specific funds are set aside by various governments to support students who have performed brilliantly well in curricular and non-curricular activities.

Learners with the potentials that they have exhibited in school competitions are also recognized when it comes to assisting them.

Another group of people aside from the government or the institution which sponsors students are individuals or Nongovernmental agencies(NGOs).

Students can be eligible for scholarships if only they meet several conditions such as not being involved in any in disciplinary action.
