Scholarships, bursaries and awards

About

We have a wide range of scholarships and awards to support students on our degree programmes (this excludes any distance learning programmes).

There is a competitive application process for these scholarships and awards – based on academic merit. And their focus can range from supporting students from specific countries or a group of countries, to particular degrees or areas of research. We also offer a number of bursaries based on financial need at undergraduate level.

Scholarship maintenance payments

If you have a SOAS (or internal) scholarship, you will receive your maintenance payments in 3 equal instalments. Instalments will be paid directly to your bank account. 

For queries regarding maintenance instalments, please contact the Scholarships Office at scholarships@soas.ac.uk.
