What happens after I have submitted my scholarship application?

Once we have received your application, we will acknowledge receipt by email where possible. We may also get in touch to request further information to support your application, or to let you know that your application is incomplete or ineligible. Otherwise, we will not be in communication with you until after all applications have been considered and we can inform you of the outcome.

Who decides and how will I find out the result?

Representatives of the academic staff in the faculty of the course you are applying for will make the decision on the award of scholarships. Once decisions have been made, the applicants will be emailed informing them of the outcome.

Please note that the committee will not undertake or participate in any individual correspondence with applicants either before or after the decision has been made.

The decision of the selection board is final.

What happens if I am awarded a scholarship?

If you are awarded a scholarship, we will, in the first instance, inform you by email. You must formally accept the scholarship and the conditions of the award in writing.

The conditions of the award will require your participation in promotional activities for the University. This may include attendance at receptions and social events and/or provision of testimonials and articles for use in publicity materials and reports.

What happens if I decide to defer my admission or change my course after I have been awarded a scholarship?

The scholarship must be used for the academic course and during year for which they were applied and awarded. If you change course or defer the year of entry, the offer of a scholarship will be withdrawn.
