Loughborough graduates will receive an alumni bursary of 10% of the tuition fees for a master's programme.

This bursary includes all Postgraduate Taught Programmes starting in October 2024 or January 2024/2025 on the University’s Loughborough and London campuses and it includes all full-time, part-time and distance learning MA, MSc, PGCE, PG Diploma and PG Certificate qualifications.

For October 2024, this bursary will be added on to the Excellence Scholarship. However, for other scholarships, students can only hold one scholarship or bursary, whichever is the highest value.

An annual programme of music and arts scholarships is offered by LU Arts – the University’s extra-curricular arts programme. These scholarships recognise and develop talent and potential in any art form including music, creative writing, performing arts and visual arts.

Students who exhibit a clear skill and passion for an art form outside of their studies could receive one of nine annual music and arts scholarships. These scholarships are designed to support talent development, enabling students to progress in their chosen art form. It is not about ‘being the best’, rather it is about showing passion and clearly articulating what benefits the scholarship would offer.

Scholarships are available in any art form, which may include musicians, singers, writers, performers, dancers, photographers, film makers and artists working in any medium. Each scholarship package includes a cash prize and a tailored package of support for the year. This support may include tuition, training or mentoring. There are also opportunities for scholars to perform at and/or organise events to help contribute to the creative life of the University.

Applications open each June for the following academic year, with a deadline of the end of October. Students must have a confirmed place to study at Loughborough and have met their entry conditions before they can apply.

To reward outstanding academic achievement, we are pleased to be able to offer our Loughborough University International Scholarships to eligible applicants holding an undergraduate offer of a place with the University.

These prestigious awards are currently to the value of 25% of tuition fees for the first year of study which we hope shows our commitment to encouraging and supporting well-qualified international students to study in the UK.
