For someone with a B.A. in Accounting and ongoing online studies, there are solid scholarship options in the US, Canada, and the UK. In the US, look at Clark University, University of Dayton, and Oklahoma State University, they offer merit scholarships for students with at least a 3.3 GPA (around 80%) or higher.
In Canada, University of Manitoba, York University, and University of Saskatchewan often award international entrance scholarships to students with a minimum GPA of 3.0&ndash;3.5 (75&ndash;85%).
In the UK, schools like University of Glasgow, Nottingham Trent, and Coventry University usually expect a 2:1 equivalent (about 70&ndash;75%) for scholarship consideration. Maintaining strong grades and submitting a persuasive personal statement will make you competitive for funding in any of these countries.

For Eritrean applicants, scholarships are available across several countries, but most require good academic standing.

In the US, universities such as Clark, Maine, and Illinois State consider applicants with a minimum GPA of 3.3/4.0 (80%+) for automatic merit awards.
In Canada, Brock University, Memorial University, and Regina offer entrance scholarships to students holding at least 75&ndash;85% in their undergraduate degree.
For the UK, the Chevening Scholarship and Nottingham Developing Solutions Scholarship typically prefer applicants with a first-class or strong upper second-class degree (70%+).

If your grades fall slightly below these ranges, focus on writing a strong motivation essay and include any leadership or community work &mdash; these can balance a lower GPA and boost your scholarship chances.
