Scholarships for Postgraduate Study
The Mathematical Institute has several scholarships available for postgraduate study. For most scholarships, all applicants submitting their application by the relevant deadline and meeting any additional criteria will be considered.
The University also offers many other scholarships which are assessed throughout the admissions period, and can be awarded any time between March - June. For more information, please see the University's Graduate Funding page. To be considered for these you must be made an offer of a place first, so an offer of funding may follow the offer of a place by weeks or months.
