The University of Reading is delighted to have been selected by the British Council as a co-funder for four GREAT Scholarships. These scholarships are awarded to master’s students from specific countries. Some are for specific courses, whilst others may be for any University of Reading master’s degree. and All GREAT scholarships have a value of £10,000.

This year, in partnership with the British Council and the GREAT Britain Campaign, the University of Reading is offering four scholarships of £10,000 each to students from the following countries:

• Bangladesh – any master’s degree.

• India – LLM, MA and MRes programmes offered in the School of Law.

• Pakistan – any master’s degree.

• Thailand – any master's degree.

Eligibility

To be eligible to apply for a GREAT Scholarship, you must:

• hold a passport issued by Bangladesh, India, Pakistan or Thailand as appropriate.

• have received an offer of admission to an eligible master’s degree course, commencing in September 2024.

• be studying on a full-time basis.

• not already, or subsequently be, in receipt of a full scholarship from another source (the GREAT scholarship may be held in conjunction with partial funding from other sources, including other University of Reading master’s scholarships, but the total value of financial support towards tuition fees cannot exceed the annual cost of tuition).

• Applications for GREAT scholarships are now open and the closing date for the submission of applications 3 May 2024.

Firstly, there is the Country Scholarship for all students from a large number of specific countries. Then there is the IFP Ambassador Scholarship that any student can apply for. If you have a Country Scholarship, you may also apply for an Ambassador Scholarship.

Both scholarships are worth a £3,000 discount on tuition fees. In addition, students applying for an integrated four-year degrees with International Foundation Year can apply for the Vice Chancellor Global Scholarship Award.

If you are an IFP applicant who is excited about studying at the University of Reading in the UK and are happy to share your experience with a wider audience through social media  and creating content like videos and photos for the IFP, then you should apply for the IFP Ambassador Scholarship. The scholarship will provide a £3,000 discount of tuition fees for the IFP year and is open for all non-sponsored international fee paying students to apply.

The number of scholarships available is limited and so you will need to submit a scholarship application. This application will involve submitting a 3000 character essay explaining your suitability as an IFP Ambassador. Being an IFP Ambassador involves upholding the values of the programme through high academic engagement and may involve taking part in promotional activities telling prospective students about the experience of being on the IFP.

The final application deadline is 30 June 2024.

The University of Reading Master’s Scholarship schemes are now open for applications for 2024/25. The University of Reading offers an extensive range of scholarships to master’s students. Some awards are provided directly by the University, others are allocated to our students by donors and sponsors and a few are jointly funded. We are delighted that in 2024/25 we will be offering more funding than in any previous year.

The University of Reading’s Master’s Scholarships Scheme offers three funding opportunities:

• Centenary Scholarships – To mark the upcoming 100th anniversary of our Royal Charter, the University is offering 125 scholarships for which all master’s students are eligible to apply.  These awards have been allocated to particular countries.

• Subject Scholarships – These awards are provided by most of our Schools and are course-specific.  Students may be considered for both this scholarship and the Centenary Scholarship.

• Alumni Master’s Scholarships – These scholarships are funded by the generosity of university donors and provide financial support for alumni who have previously studied at the University of Reading.

There are two rounds of scholarship applications received. Round One closes on 1 March 2024 and Round Two will consider applications received by 31 May 2024.
