University of Edinburgh scholarships for international students: What's available?

I'm an international student with my eyes on the University of Edinburgh. Could someone share what types of scholarships they offer to international students? I'm curious about the application process and any deadlines I should be aware of.

The University of Edinburgh does offer a variety of scholarships specifically for international students. Here's a summary of a few notable ones:

1. The Edinburgh Global Undergraduate Mathematics Scholarships: This is offered to students of outstanding ability from countries outside the EU. The scholarship worth up to £5,000 per year is available for undergraduate degree programmes in Mathematics.

2. The Law School has the Tercentenary International Scholars' Excellence Award for the LLB (Hons) and LLB (Hons) with Mathematics programmes. These are worth c. £10,000 annually for the duration of a student’s degree program.

3. The Dean’s India Scholarship (Law): This offers up to three scholarships, worth £4,000 - £8,000 each, to Indian students commencing their studies in the LLM.

In terms of the application process, it's generally quite straight forward. You would need to gather the necessary documents, which usually includes a completed application form, academic transcripts, letter(s) of recommendation, and a personal statement. The precise process and list of documents can vary depending on the specific scholarship, so I'd recommend checking the requirement of each scholarship on the university website.

Deadlines likewise vary by scholarship. Some scholarships may have a deadline in early spring, others may have deadlines in the early summer months. Again, please make sure to verify each scholarship's deadline on the university's website.

Remember, this is not an exhaustive list of scholarships. There may be more opportunities available and the university regularly updates its scholarship offerings. Therefore, it always helps to routinely check the university’s scholarships webpage for updates and new opportunities. Also, it's a good practice to start your scholarship applications well before the deadlines, as they can be quite competitive and require substantial effort in putting together the application. Good luck with your application process!
