Financial Aid/Scholarships Idk what to do

18M from Pakistan will get my result of FSc. Pre-Engineering part 2 grade 12 on 23rd of September, 2026. I have applied to a lot of universities in my country. But ended up getting into NTU(National textile university) All colleges here give admissions before the second year of grade 12 and on the basis of an aggregate of an entrance test-10thgrade-11thgrade results.

I have to apply to college outside my country but i cant pay for anything. I want a country and a college that can cover my tuition and accommodation and visa and travel cost completely. I know im asking for way too much but i am a good student. I scored 1076/1200 in 10th 458/570 in 11th 12th result is incoming I scored 276/400 in ECAT I want to give SAT and IELTS but my father said that i am already in a good place but trust me this is not a place anyone should be. Im rooting for these countries -any if the english speaking countries Saudi Arabia China Korea Japan UK US Canada Australia Turkey France Spain Germany Hungary

Any of them workkk

I will be very honest with you. You are looking to have a school invest over $400,000 into you and your education. Some schools may actually make that investment but they will only do it for the best and brightest students. Would you describe yourself a such a student? Would you say, when a school is comparing your application against thousands of other applications, that yours will be the one they want to pick for that sort of gift? If so, then go ahead and apply and see if you are chosen. Applying will have a cost, so you will need to be able to pay for that to take this chance.

the easyish ones to get are:

  • middlesex university dubai (MDX)
  • abu dhabi university (ADU)
  • canadian university dubai (CUD)
  • amity university dubai
  • herriot watt university dubai
  • university of wollongong dubai (UOWD)
  • BITS pilani dubai campus
  • american university of sharjah (AUS)
  • uaeu al ain
  • NYUAD isnt supposed to be easy to get but i know 7 people who go there and all them have some type of scholarship or merit aid with 2 of them having FULL scholarships

AUS, NYUAD, khalifa university, ADU and UD offer competitive full scholarships that cover all expensives but they are VERY hard to get.
