Three scholarships are up for grabs. They’re for students who have already been accepted to study at the University of Edinburgh. You should have said ‘yes’ to your offer or be planning to. The scholarship is for students who will go back to their countries and use what they learn to help others.

A Background

These scholarships are super competitive and are given to students based on how good their grades are and how much potential they have for doing great research. You can be studying for a Master of Research or a PhD, and the support lasts for up to three years for PhD students and two years for Master of Research students. That’s a lot of time to dive deep into your studies and come up with some amazing findings.

If you’re thinking about applying, you should know that the process is pretty straightforward. You apply online, and you’ve got to do it through a project that has a scholarship linked to it. There’s a guide that walks you through the steps so you won’t get lost. And if you’ve got questions, there’s a FAQ section, or you can just reach out directly to the UniSA team.
