International scholarships

About these scholarships

For academic year 2020-21 we are launching international scholarships available to new full-time international students on undergraduate taught degree courses holding an offer to start their course in academic year 2020.

The scholarship is worth a £2,500 reduction in tuition fees for the first year of study only.

The International scholarship is now closed.

Criteria

We are committed to ensuring your future employability and studying your degree at Brighton will help you to pursue a successful future career. International scholarships will be awarded based on your answers to the following questions:

  • What do you hope to gain from your Brighton degree course?
  • How will a scholarship help you in your studies?

 

Who is eligible?

To be eligible to apply for a scholarship you must be a new, international fee-status student holding an offer for a full-time undergraduate taught degree.

You must have applied for the course of your choice at the University of Brighton or Brighton and Sussex Medical School, and have been offered a place on that course for entry in academic year 2020.

This scholarship is not open to students that are fully sponsored.

Existing international students are not eligible unless starting a new undergraduate programme.

 

How to apply

The International scholarship is now closed.
