Application for Postgraduate Scholarship Master’s Programmes

(MBA applicants should use the MBA Scholarship Application Form)

Portsmouth Business School is offering a number of scholarships to self-funding national Home/EU students. The scholarship will be in the form of 40% discount off any tuition fee for taught master’s programmes but cannot be taken in conjunction with any other discount or bursary offered by the University with the exception of the 2% early payment discount which is applied to the net value of the fee. The early payment discount is available to self-funding students who pay their tuition fee in full in advance of the beginning of the academic year.

The deadline for the scholarship applications is 31 May. Successful scholarship applicants will be required to accept their place on the programme within four weeks of notification in order to obtain the reduction in fee. For those programmes which offer a January/May start date, candidates will need to apply to be considered for a scholarship by the end of the preceding November. We regret that we are not able to consider scholarship applications after this date.

Awards will be made on a competitive basis, taking the following into consideration:
