	It is really important for every Pakistani student to get a scholarship if he/ she wishes to study abroad. Studying abroad is very expensive particularly for Pakistani students. A major reason is the currency difference of developed countries and Pakistan. Dollars and Euro are at least hundred times stronger than Pakistani rupee. In addition, Pakistan is not a very rich country. People hardly make a living in this country and if they have to visit a foreign country they will have to spend a great percentage of their financial resources if they have any.

	Most of the Pakistani students who wish to study abroad apply for only foreign scholarships. Most of students are unaware that every year thousands of scholarships are distributed in Pakistan by government or some independent organizations. Before you apply for a foreign scholarships scheme, try to get the support from Pakistani scholarship and grant programs. In today&rsquo;s article, I am sharing with you the most famous scholarship schemes in Pakistan to study abroad.
