Are you eligible?

The scholarships are merit-based and to be eligible an applicant should have or expect to achieve a UK first class Honours degree or overseas equivalent, hold the required English Language qualification, and be able to demonstrate the potential for outstanding achievement. Meeting these requirements does not guarantee an award, since the process of granting a limited number of awards is affected by the general standard of applications received in any individual year.

To be considered for a scholarship, the applicant must have submitted a postgraduate application form and hold either a Conditional or Unconditional offer for one of the above-listed MSc courses by 5pm on 31 July 2013. However, it is in your interest to apply as soon as possible (see condition 3 below). No late entries will be considered. If you have already submitted an application to study at Aston University you will automatically be considered for a scholarship on the criteria listed above.
