Are there scholarships for international students in Birmingham?

I’ve been looking at universities in Birmingham but I’m not sure about the funding part. Are there any scholarships specifically for international students attending schools there? I'd appreciate any advice from someone familiar with the process!

Yes, there are scholarships available for international students in Birmingham, notably at the University of Birmingham. Several scholarships targeting international students are available and vary in their award amount. They work to support talented international students, and some require particular academic standards, while others may look at financial need.

An example of such scholarship is the "Outstanding Achievement Scholarships" program. This scholarship offers a £2,500 tuition fee reduction for international students in their first year of study. There is also the "Global Masters Scholarships," with a scholarship worth up to £10,000 for international students studying a Masters's program.

Another scholarship which is available for international undergraduate students includes the "Chancellor's Full Scholarship Award." This scholarship offers full tuition fees for international students with exceptional academic achievement and potential.

Remember that these scholarships usually have an application deadline and criteria that need to be met. It's important to thoroughly research each scholarship and ensure you meet all the eligibility criteria before applying. In addition to these scholarships, some departments within the university offer scholarships specifically for students studying in that field.

Lastly, while each scholarship has its specific application process, typically, you'll be required to have a confirmed offer of admission before you can apply. Some scholarships require separate applications, while others might just use your admissions application to consider you. So make sure you're paying close attention to the details. Good luck with your research and applications!
