Dear Manish,
Scholarships are always given on merit-basis, which means it is competitive and awarded to students with an outstanding profile. US Universities are quite generous, when it comes to financial grants and scholarships. To be strongly considered for one, you need a good profile which comprises a brilliant academic track record and substantial extra-curricular activities.
In addition, you will also require a very good GRE score. A small thing to remember here, there is no single criteria when it comes to US, you need to remember that they look for an overall healthy profile. If you do have an average track record, you may be considered for scholarships and admissions if your extra-curricular is strong.
