Taylor University in Upland, Indiana, uses taylor.edu. Taylor’s University in Malaysia uses university.taylors.edu.my. Taylor’s College is also a distinct study route to check carefully. Do not copy award amounts, admission dates or eligibility rules from one institution into an application to another. ## Identify the institution before comparing awards Write the full institution name, country, campus, intended programme and entry intake at the top of your application notes. Check that the scholarship page and application portal belong to that institution. A result containing the word Taylor is not enough. If an award describes a college or pre-university programme, verify that it actually applies to your intended degree route. Taylor University's Indiana scholarship page lists academic and other award categories, including awards with different eligibility conditions. Use the current official listing to identify the award that matches your applicant type. This guide does not state that every award is available to international students or that admission automatically secures a scholarship. ## Read the conditions in four passes First check eligibility: applicant category, academic record, programme and any testing requirements. Second check the application process: automatic consideration, separate form, nomination, audition or interview. Third check the timing: admission completion, scholarship submission and supporting-document deadlines may differ. Fourth check renewal: an initial award and an award renewed for later years are not the same commitment. Make a comparison note with one line per award. Record the official source and the date you read it. If the website gives an amount per year, do not multiply it across your whole degree without confirming renewal and maximum duration. If an award replaces another award, do not add both amounts when estimating your available funding. ## Work out the remaining cost Separate tuition from accommodation, meals, insurance, travel, books and personal expenses. Use the institution's published cost information and a written award offer when available. A fictional example illustrates the method: if tuition is 20 units and an award covers 8 units of tuition, the tuition balance is 12 units before other costs. Those numbers are not Taylor's prices or a scholarship offer. International applicants should ask the relevant admissions team which awards and financial documentation apply to their circumstances. Avoid assuming that rules for domestic financial aid apply to everyone. Keep currency and academic year visible in your notes so that two different institutions' figures cannot be accidentally combined. ## Prepare a specific application and enquiry Use your own academic, service or creative examples to address the published selection criteria. Explain your contribution and learning rather than copying an online essay. For an enquiry, provide the institution, intended programme, intake and applicant category, then ask one precise question such as whether the named award is open to that category and whether a separate application is required. Before sending, verify the recipient through the official website and attach only requested documents. Save the reply alongside the scholarship conditions. If an older article conflicts with the institution's current requirements, follow the current official instructions and seek clarification before making a financial commitment. ## Official sources - [Taylor University Indiana scholarships](https://www.taylor.edu/admissions/tuition-funding/scholarships) - [Taylor’s University Malaysia](https://university.taylors.edu.my/en.html) ## Related preparation guides - [Taylor’s College Malaysia guide](/blog/taylors-college-merit-scholarship-intake-interview-guide) - [Scholarship eligibility checklist](/blog/how-to-read-scholarship-eligibility-requirements-correctly) ## Frequently asked questions ### Are Taylor University and Taylor’s University the same institution?
