We are offering a number of scholarship awards to international, undergraduate students with established and continued academic excellence.  The scholarship will be awarded to international undergraduate students who exceed the academic conditions of our standard UCAS offer.

We will offer the scholarship in the form of a cash bursary at the start of your course should you be eligible.
