Scholarship and fellowship programmes are a godsend to financially weak students, especially if they excel academically. These programmes provide much-needed financial assistance and give students access to top-class faculty, great peers to learn from and compete with, and even industry experts. Scholarships may be generic or specific to students of a particular age, cultural background or academic qualification. The Covid-19 pandemic created a significant gap in education access and gave rise to several scholarship programmes to help students.
