What is the difference between eligibility and being a good fit for a scholarship?
Eligibility lays out the bare bones requirements of an application. While many applicants might be eligible to apply, they may not be strong candidates. After checking that you meet the minimum eligibility criteria, you should next consider whether or not your particular interests, experiences, professional aspirations etc. make you a good fit for a particular scholarship. One way to assess fit for a scholarship is to look at the previous winners (their websites typically provide brief bios of previous scholars), and to meet with a scholarship adviser.
