Scholarships are valid for the length of the course subject to passing each year of study without resits or repeat years. If you need to undertake re-sits or repeat the year, you will need to pay the full fee for the applicable year. If you successfully complete the year, your scholarship can be re-instated. Please note that MA courses are typically completed in one year, so the above mainly relates to undergraduate study. All awards will be finalised once all offer conditions have been met. All scholarships awarded take the form of a partial tuition fee waiver.

Foundation Year students can also apply for their 2nd to 4th years of study. All international Foundation Year students receive a discount of £4,000 in their first year of study.

Principal's Scholarships are awarded to exceptionally deserving students based on audition and personal statement.
