About This Opportunity

Each year, in partnership with the Cambridge Trust, Wolfson College funds several Cambridge Opportunity Masters awards to Home-fee-rated students from low-income households with experience of educational disadvantage. The award is intended to cover University fees and living expenses when the maximum postgraduate grant or loan is taken with government student finance. The scholarship is designed to support students who do not have existing financial means to finance their proposed course of study, including savings, assets, other awards, or income independent of hours worked. Preference is given to eligible applicants who have specified Wolfson College as their first or second choice in their admissions application. Selection is based on both financial need and academic merit.
