In short

  • 801 awards on this page accept Mexican applicants. 283 cover tuition in full.
  • Universities fund most of it themselves, deciding the award alongside the admission rather than separately.
  • France hosts more of them than any other destination, at 67. The remainder spread across 103 countries, most carrying one or two awards.
  • 25 close within four months. The rest run annually, and a missed window costs a year.
  • 641 set no nationality condition at all. Degree level and closing dates rule out more Mexican applicants than nationality does.

Questions Mexican students ask

Can Mexican students actually get these scholarships?

641 of the 801 awards here set no nationality condition, so a Mexican passport is not what decides them. What decides them is the degree level, the subject, and whether your documents arrive before the window shuts.

Where can you study on them?

France carries the most, with 67. Beyond that the awards spread across 103 other countries. None of them travels: an award pays for the country it names, so pick the destination first and work back to the money.

What is different about the government-funded ones?

They tend to pay more — usually tuition plus something to live on — and they cost more to apply for in time. Expect one window a year, a nomination step or an embassy in the middle of it, and several months between applying and hearing back. Some also ask you to come home for a period after you graduate.

When should you start applying?

Six to twelve months before you want to start. Only 41 of these 801 awards publish a fixed date; the rest announce one cycle at a time, so the useful habit is checking the funder's own page rather than waiting to be told.

Does applying cost anything?

No. None of the scholarships listed here charges a fee to apply. The university you are applying to may charge its own application fee, which is a separate thing set by the institution, not by whoever is funding the award.
