Scholarships

UK universities offer scholarships based on academic performance, financial need, nationality, and field of study. These scholarships may provide financial aid or a discount on tuition fees. Since each university is responsible for its own scholarship program, eligibility rules and conditions vary from institution to institution. The amounts offered typically range from £1,000 to £5,000 on average.

There are also international foundations that provide funding for international students. While the assistance offered by these institutions may provide greater financial support or even full coverage, the number of scholarships is considerably smaller than those provided by universities.

🏦 💰 European Union students, holders of Pre-Settled or Settled Status in the UK, may have their tuition fees funded by the British Government.

Job opportunities in the UK
