Alumni Scholarship

Eligibility

The discount will be automatically applied if you meet all the following requirements:

a. You must be a previous full-time or part-time student of Cardiff Met (or as UWIC/Cardiff Institute of Higher Education). This includes franchised partners.

b. You have achieved an undergraduate or postgraduate qualification with us (including PGCE qualifications).

c. You have enrolled and are studying on a postgraduate programme at a Cardiff based campus of Cardiff Metropolitan University or you have enrolled and are studying on a research programme either based at a Cardiff campus or on line, during the 2025/26 academic year.

d. You must be liable for the full tuition-fee cost of your postgraduate course and be entirely privately funded (funding from Student Finance Wales/England is allowed) and not in receipt of sponsorship from any other body (e.g. employer, provider of any other scholarship or bursary) and also not in receipt of any incentive payments (e.g. government incentive).

If your financial circumstances change, for example if a financial contribution is received towards your fees from a sponsor during your course, which lasts more than one year, the Alumni Discount will not be awarded for the subsequent years.

You are not eligible for the award if you are:

• enrolling on a PGCE/PCE Post Compulsory Education & Training (PCET) programme. (This programme is unavailable due to being below postgraduate level. PGCE Primary and Secondary are Eligible for the Discount)
• an Erasmus student.
• a student from a Franchised non-UK partner, undertaking your postgraduate course overseas.
• in receipt of staff or current partnership discounts.
• in receipt of any NHS Bursary award.
