I'm considering applying to the University of Bath as an international student and want to know more about the scholarships available. Are there any specific ones that I should be aware of, and what's the application process like?
The University of Bath does offer a variety of scholarships specifically for international students. Most scholarships are awarded based on academic merit and/or financial need, and some are geared towards students from certain regions of the world.
One major award is The Chancellor's Scholarship. This award is aimed at overseas students (international & EU) who have demonstrated academic excellence in their studies. All eligible overseas students will receive a first-year tuition fee waiver worth up to £2,000. These scholarships are not limited in number and you will receive an award if you meet the criteria.
The University also offers The International Baccalaureate 50th Anniversary Scholarship aimed at overseas students (international & EU) studying the International Baccalaureate who have demonstrated academic excellence in their studies. All overseas students receiving this award will receive a first-year tuition fee waiver worth up to £6,000. These scholarships are not limited in number and you will receive an award if you meet the criteria.
The application process generally involves filling out an application form with your details, including why you should be considered for the scholarship. In many cases, you will need to detail your personal and academic achievements.
Just keep in mind that the opportunities available can change from year to year, so it's best to check the University of Bath's financial support page for the most up-to-date information on what is available and the specifics regarding the application process for each one.
