The value of the Graduate Scholarship will be a fee deduction equivalent to 20% of the tuition fee due for the first year of full-time postgraduate study and (for UK / EU students only) 20% of the fee due for all years of part-time postgraduate or doctoral study. However in all instances, the Graduate Scholarship is not applicable to tuition fees due for repeating modules.
The Graduate Scholarship is available for a range of postgraduate taught programmes offered by the University. These include Master's awards, those at Postgraduate Certificate or Postgraduate Diploma level (but excluding the Postgraduate Certificate in Education (PGCE), the Certificate in Professional Studies, some vocational or professional practice certificates and short courses). The graduate scholarship is not available for any postgraduate courses funded via the undergraduate student SFE loans being; MSc Nursing (Adult, Learning Disabilities and Mental Health), Master of Midwifery (Shortened), School Direct (unsalaried), MArch Architecture and Urbanism.
Graduates must:
a) have been offered and accepted a place on a full-time or part-time (UK / EU only) award-bearing University of Hertfordshire programme
and
b) be paying the full cost of the tuition fee from their own resources directly to the University of Hertfordshire, and not discounted or sponsored for any part of the fee by the University of Hertfordshire or an organisation such as an employer, charitable body or government department. (Any contribution by an external organisation to the student's living costs, or a contribution from the student's family to the fee or living costs, does not count as sponsorship under this scheme)
