Postgraduate Access Scholarship

University of Glasgow

Scholarship details

The University of Glasgow is pleased to be offering Postgraduate Access Scholarships to support Home students who could face financial difficulties in taking up their place to study at the University. Applications are particularly welcomed from applicants who met any of our widening participation criteria, or equivalent, at undergraduate level. The value of each scholarship is £4,000 and they are for students undertaking a one or two year Taught Masters programme. For two year Taught Masters programmes, the scholarship is available in year one only.

University of Glasgow is committed to support as many self-funded students as possible which is why UofG discounts and scholarships cannot be combined with one another or any external sponsorship discounts (with the exception of Alumni Discount). This scholarship can not be awarded in conjunction with the Glasgow (UK) Excellence Award. In the case that you are awarded both, our team will get in touch with you to clarify which scholarship you would like to accept.

- Hold an offer for a full-time postgraduate taught Masters programme in September 2026. There is also a number of scholarships available for part time Masters students. This scholarship is not available for PG Dip or PG Cert programmes apart from the PgDip in Legal practice.
- Not previously have undertaken postgraduate study.
- Provide evidence of excellent academic achievement in their undergraduate studies (Normally 2:1 degree classification, or above).
- Be classified as Home or RUK for fee purposes.
- Provide evidence that their circumstances are such that they may find it difficult to take up a place at the University for financial or other reasons.

See website for details.
