A numbers of scholarship awards are available for international students intending to study graduate, postgraduate and research degrees. The majority are offered by outside the university although in certain cases candidates also can make an application through the respective university or college you are applying for. Some of these scholarship awards require you to have received an offer of admission for a study programme by a specific date, so if you would wish to be considered you should make sure that you submit your application in plenty of time for a decision to be made. Here is the country wise information:
USA
Most of the students prefer to study in USA because there are many scopes for skilled person and they know the value of your talents and skills. US universities mostly provide stipends, bursaries and full scholarships to international students. Some useful scholarship awarding agencies are Fulbright Scholarships (for Nepal www.fulbrightnepal.org.np), ADB bank JSP programme, and website of particular university you are applying for.

British council awards: British council awards and scholarship are available to certain international students to pursue graduate and postgraduate study.

British council awards scholarship from graduate to PhD Level. Web www.britishcouncil.org this will provide information of chevening scholarshiptoo.
Canada
Funding opportunities for international students are not as plentiful as they are for Canadians. This is because many forms of assistance provided by the federal and provincial governments are offered to Canadian citizens or permanent residence of Canada only. However, the university you are applying suggests you some funding agencies and they can provide their own university awards without any nationality restrictions. Additional information on opportunities for financial assistance available for international students and fellows can found and downloaded from the Canadian Bureau for International Education (CBIE). They produce free brochure entitled Destination Education Canada, available on the web at www.destineducation.ca

This information can be found in detail from respective embassy or consulate at your country.
