Hi Deepak,
Since Stanford is one of the most selective universities in the world both gaining admission and scholarship are difficult, however, if you are extremely bright and meritorious and if you deserve a place in Stanford and obviously they will give you financial help. But first see if you meet the requirements, visit the Stanford website and prepare yourself.

Hi, Stanford has the lowest acceptance rate that is the selectivity is very very strict ,so you have to be a exceptional student to be accepted by Stanford. You must not only excel in your studies but must be an allrounder. Aspirants generally prepare for these schools from middle school onwards. It's not easy but not impossible.So, prepare for the SAT or ACT and build extracurricular activities, take a gap if required.Very importantly read this and check what kind of students they admit and prepare accordingly

Hello Nikhil,
You have not mentioned admission in undergraduate or PG course after you finish graduation in India. Scholarships are not the way of life in USA. Work while you learn is the norm. There will be plenty of opportunities for this.

Hello Aditya,
Students do get scholarships in Universities abroad or they also get opportunities to work during studies to enable them pay for their studies. Unfortunately there is no single yardstick. It changes from institution to institution. You will have to check with each institute separately.

What are you pursuing right now? There are very few organizations which offer scholarships for Undergraduate education. You can apply for scholarships/financial aid directly to these universities or you can apply to Next Genius Scholarship Program or Tata Cornell Scholarship for Cornell University.

Yes, you can do it. It depends on your IELTS score and your graduation marks.

Business schools require an MBA essay which is mainly a career goals essay. You have to highlight your interests of doing the MBA program, why you want to apply and how it's going to help you. Mention your overall challenges, what have you done out of the league to showcase your uniqueness. Mainly ask yourself why Stanford should admit you and not someone else who could be better than you.
A CV on the other hand is a normal CV about your academic and work profile. Perhaps we can talk about the interview prep once you have an offer. Good luck.

Hi,
Stanford has limited scholarships for international students and based on financial background. You must notify this to the university. Also gaining admissions into Stanford is highly competitive. Please check the scholarship section of Stanford university website for details.
