Hi,

For PR, you need a "Permanent Full Time Job Offer" (the toughest thing!) NOT a scholarship. There is no relation between PR and scholarship.

Hi,

Yes you are not eligible to apply for PGWP in case you get official scholarship but no such rules applicable for University Scholarship. For example, Indian students who hold Commonwealth Scholarship MUST return back to India.
