About This Opportunity

The Aziz Foundation has partnered with Wolfson College to fund scholarships for Home-fee-rated students who are actively engaged in British Muslim communities and who wish to study for a Master's degree at the University of Cambridge in order to improve access for individuals from social groups who historically have been underrepresented at the University. An Aziz Foundation Scholarship will cover the University Composition Fee for the course. The scholarships are aimed at those who are dedicated to community service, social development and effective advocacy within and for British Muslim communities. Applications will be accepted from students who have been offered admission to Cambridge for 2026/2027 and are pursuing courses and/or career aspirations in the following priority areas: Media & Journalism, Technology, Sustainability/Environment, Law, Policy, Arts & Culture, Sports. Applications will not be accepted from students intending to take up courses in science, health policy or mathematics. The scholarship will not cover the cost of premium courses at the Judge Business School. The aim is to support emerging leaders who have a high level of commitment to the British Muslim community as well as the aspirations to lead and inspire in their respective field.
