We have a wide range of scholarships and awards to support students on our degree programmes.
Each award page details the residency and person eligibility criteria, as well as the application deadline dates that you will need to meet. In order to apply for SOAS scholarships, applicants should ensure they have made an application to study with SOAS, as our new admission system will pick up your eligibility criteria.
Awards for 2026/27 will be opening throughout November 2025 to January 2026.
