Minimum eligibility depends on the specific scholarship, but many major entrance awards are driven by admission average (and sometimes your fee status and whether it’s your first undergraduate program). Some awards are automatic; others require an application and consider leadership, financial need, program fit, or community impact.
A helpful real example is Brock recipient Areeba Iqbal, who reports graduating with a “CGPA of 3.85/4.00” (bachelor’s) and “3.98/4.00” (master’s). But she also emphasizes balance: “CGPA matters, but it is not everything,” pointing to clarity of direction plus profile-building (research, writing, volunteering, etc.).
For research-based graduate funding, strong alignment with a supervisor/lab and evidence of research readiness can matter a lot; Areeba credits her profile edge to an “international research publication” plus relevant experience.
