Scholarships and Funding
UCL Global Excellence Graduate Scholarships
UCL Global Excellence Scholarships aim to reward academic excellence
among new UCL students.
There are a total of eight scholarships per session for the
academically most outstanding graduate students joining UCL. Students
enrolling on joint programmes (programmes run by UCL and another university)
are not eligible. One graduate award is reserved for a student resident in each
of the following regions:
- The UK
- Europe (excluding the UK, but including Russia)
- Africa
- Indian sub-continent and the Middle East
- China, North- and Central South-East Asia
- Australasia
- North America
- Central and South America including the Caribbean
Eligibility Requirements
Students do not need to apply for the scholarship. Candidates must
have applied for admission to UCL for degree study at graduate level to be
considered for an award.
Each Academic Department must make their nominations for the awards
by 28 March 2014 and so it is recommended that you apply for
admission as early as possible.
Selection Criteria
Scholarships are awarded on the basis of academic excellence,
achievement and potential. Financial circumstances of the candidates are not taken into account.
The region category for which you will be considered will be determined
from your answer to the question on the admission application form which asks
for your country of ordinary residence.
Value: Benefits and Duration
The scholarships consist of £5,000 and are tenable for one year
only. Scholarship funds may be applied to fees or paid out in three instalments
payable at the start of each term.
Nominations Deadline and Procedure
There is no application procedure for students. Candidates are
nominated by Departments and Faculties.
Students must have received an offer of a place from the department
by the final deadline of 11 April 2014 to be considered.
Graduate Selection and Notification of Results
A panel of UCL academics will select the recipients of the
eight regional awards from nominations put forward by the Faculties, and
will also identify reserve candidates.
Selection results will be announced to Faculties and successful
candidates in June.
