The Business School will offer two LGBT+ scholarships to the value of £10,000 for entry onto one of our taught Masters degrees. The scholarships will be awarded to candidates who are committed to making a difference to the LGBT+ community, especially within the business environment. You can only apply for the scholarship once you have received an offer (conditional or unconditional) to join one of the eligible programmes and have either firmly accepted the offer or be intending to do so. The scholarship selection panel can only consider your application if you hold an active offer throughout your scholarship application process (meaning if your offer is declined at any point up until the scholarship decision deadline you will no longer be eligible). You can apply to the scholarship only once within per admissions cycle.
Criteria
The LGBT+ Scholarship will be awarded to candidates who:
Can demonstrate their commitment to the LGBT+ community through previous action and support either within the business setting specifically, or in a wider sense through LGBT+ action.
Continue to aspire to make a difference for the LGBT+ community through their future personal and career goals.
Have sound academic credentials.
You will not be eligible for this scholarship if:
You are fully sponsored by your employer.
You are in receipt of a full scholarship.
You have already accepted another scholarship from the University of Edinburgh Business School.
You submit a scholarship application prior to having secured an offer for the programme you are applying to.
