Yes, a conditional or unconditional admission offer is mandatory to be eligible for financial support at UoE. Also maintain great scores in studies, and not be getting financial help from anywhere else. For master's courses, most scholarships also ask for prior work experience. A portfolio of your certifications and achievements is also needed.
