text: whats the criteria to get scholarship for indians in us universities?   it is very difficult for foreign students to scholarships to attend college in the us. scholarships are reserved for students with very high gpa's, huge social work resumes, and citizens. my company has been giving out scholarships for a few years and we just have not seen the level of knowledge, drive, and social work needed to justify a scholarship to a non-us citizen yet. this could change, however, there are thousands if not hundreds of thousands of foreign students who wish to study in the us.
