About This Opportunity

The Gibson-Sykora Postgraduate Taught Scholarship is available to entrant postgraduate taught students with Polish nationality and Home fee status. The Gibson-Sykora Trust was established in 1988 to support Polish students at the University of St Andrews. This scholarship is based partly on financial need and covers full tuition fees for one year. The scholarship is available for one-year taught Masters programmes (MLitt, MSc, MRes, MPP), one-year Masters research programmes (MSc (Res) and MSt (Res)), and two-year Masters research programmes with a taught element in the first year (MPhil (taught), MFA), though it is only available for the first year of two-year programmes. Applicants must be either a Polish national or domiciled in Poland and have Home fee status. The selection is based on both academic merit and financial need.
