Search for scholarships
Search our scholarships database using the filters - e.g. your Level of Study, Faculty area, 'International Student', and Award Type.
Each scholarship has its own Regulations which gives the eligibility criteria so you would need to check these to determine if you are eligible.
All scholarships are subject to funding availability and are reviewed each year. If a scholarship listed here has some older dates or no dates, it means that it has not yet been confirmed as being available for the current year yet but keep checking as these are updated regularly.
