It depends. There is no fixed scholarship amount. Depends on your profile. I’ve see people get as much as 50% with Gmat waiver, depending on your profile.

I understand that it all depends on profile, however, there are schools which says there are very less chances of scholarship without GMAT score.

Praful2910, I echo with Aishat said. Totally depends upon your profile and how well you are able to put your candidacy across. Plus it also depends upon the rounds that you’re applying because by R3 the schools must have already shelled out a significant amount in fellowships. That being said, I’m a R3 applicant, international applicant, with a waiver and still received a massive scholarship from UNC. Hope this helps answer your que :)

I dont think they provide specific reason. It is just a generic message like it’s been competitive and we get so many applications so it is tough
