About this opportunity

Cambridge Opportunity Studentships are for Masters students from low-income households with experience of educational disadvantage who are set at the Home rate for fees. Get In Cambridge Studentships follow the same criteria and are reserved to address under-representation of students from Black, British Bangladeshi or British Pakistani backgrounds. Both studentships are intended to cover University fees and living expenses when the maximum postgraduate grant or loan is taken with government student finance. Applicants must not already be qualified at Masters level or higher, nor currently undertaking postgraduate study. Recipients must not have existing financial means in the form of savings, assets, other awards, or an income independent of hours worked to finance the proposed course of study. Approximately 30 awards are available for the 2026/27 academic year.
