TOEFL Scholar Program for Indian Students Planning to Study in UK, USA and Canada

ETS has developed a scholarship programme to recognise outstanding students in India who will begin their postgraduate studies in the U.K., U.S. or Canada in 2010. The programme will recognise students with high academic achievement who have demonstrated leadership skills, innovative ideas and an outstanding ability to communicate in English.

Seven scholarships are available. Awards will be issued to the attending institutions in order to assist students with their educational expenses. There will be three (3) $10,000 scholarships and four (4) $5,000 scholarships awarded to selected test takers who have already been accepted at an institution in the U.K., U.S. or Canada.
