About
We have a wide range of scholarships and awards to support students on our degree programmes (this excludes any distance learning programmes).
There is a competitive application process for these scholarships and awards – based on academic merit. And their focus can range from supporting students from specific countries or a group of countries, to particular degrees or areas of research. We also offer a number of bursaries based on financial need at undergraduate level.
