Worth knowing before you apply
A tuition contribution, not a full scholarship — living costs are not covered. Delivered by the British Council with participating universities, and the subject list changes each intake.
Covering what the scholarship does not
A partial award reduces the bill rather than removing it. Work out the remaining figure first, then decide how to fund it — that is the number a lender assesses, not the headline fee.
