GrabScholarships · Free scholarship guidance
Find your scholarship. Apply with confidence.
GrabScholarships is a free platform for students who want to study abroad. We list scholarships from universities, governments and foundations, link each one to its official source, and guide you through your application, from high school to PhD.
About GrabScholarships.
GrabScholarships is a free scholarship search and guidance platform based in Malaysia. We help students find scholarships they may qualify for, understand what each one asks for, and prepare a strong application.
We cover scholarships for high school, diploma, undergraduate, master's and PhD study, across the world's main study destinations.
Each listing is checked against its official source and shows the deadline, who can apply, what it covers and where to apply. When a deadline passes, we mark it clearly, so you do not chase a closed opportunity.
Beyond the listings, we offer free guides, an AI study advisor, English lessons and one-to-one help from our team. We never take payment on behalf of a university, and no scholarship or admission is ever guaranteed: the decision always rests with the provider.

A Message From Us
Read moreWelcome to GrabScholarships.
We started this platform because good scholarships are often hard to find and even harder to understand. Our aim is simple: put clear, checked information in one place, so that where you were born or what you can afford does not decide whether you can study.
How we check listingsOur promise to every student.
We will always send you to the official source, tell you honestly what a scholarship covers, and never ask you to pay for an award. If you are unsure where to start, our team and Sirius, our AI study advisor, are here to help you take the next step.

Student Voices Testimonials
With the help of GrabScholarships, I found a scholarship to study in Malaysia and completed my degree in Computer Science. I have now graduated and work with an IT company back home.
GrabScholarships helped me find my way to scholarship opportunities around the world. I have secured a partially funded scholarship to study in the United States, and with my family's support I am preparing to travel.
Every time I looked for opportunities, they were not for me. Then I found a platform that filtered the information I needed and sent me straight to applications that match my qualifications. With help from the team, I applied to several scholarships. Some answers have come back, and I am waiting on the rest before I choose the one that suits me best.
I was struggling to learn, especially English, and I was always overwhelmed by information. Here, the information was filtered and specific to my problem. In a short time, I can now speak English fluently.
