Broadening Horizons Award (Global Mobility)

The Broadening Horizons Award is a funding opportunity jointly launched by King's College London and the Widening Participation Department, aimed at increasing the number of widening participation students who can access mobility opportunities. Since its introduction in 2015/16, the award has supported hundreds of students to complete term-time study and work placements, summer exchange and elective experiences all over the world. The award is available to home-fee-paying undergraduate students who meet at least one of the eligibility criteria and who are completing an eligible activity such as study abroad, work placements, field trips, or internships. Students usually receive awards in the region of £250 to £900, with amounts varying based on criteria met, financial need, destination, length of stay, and the number of applications received. The program operates through three annual rounds depending on when the activity takes place.
