Broaden your horizons with our Postgraduate Support Scholarships

You can apply for our Postgraduate Support Scholarships if you study most of our taught masters and MRes programmes with only a few exceptions*.

These scholarships will consist of £3,000 per year for taught programmes or £2,000 per year for MRes programmes, in addition to our Alumni Fee Scholarship which can be held at the same time as our Postgraduate Support Scholarship.

Alumni Fee Scholarships

If you hold a bachelor's or higher degree with us, you will automatically be eligible for our alumni discount and do not need to apply separately.

*Exceptions: postgraduate diplomas, postgraduate certificates, integrated masters and courses funded by other public bodies (e.g. PGCE).
