Knox Studentship for French Students

The Knox Studentship is intended for citizens of France who wish to undertake a one-year postgraduate course at the University of Cambridge, leading to the MPhil degree, MASt, LLM, a Diploma or a Certificate. The studentship covers international tuition fees, maintenance costs, student visa expenses, immigration health surcharge, and includes a research emolument of £500 per annum. The award also covers the cost of a return ticket from France to the United Kingdom. Approximately two awards are available annually. A studentship may also be offered to students who are French citizens and conducting research leading to a doctoral degree at a French University, but whose work would clearly benefit from access for up to a year to library or laboratory resources in Cambridge. These candidates must be admitted to a Faculty as a visiting student, but will not be registered for any qualification at the University of Cambridge. The award is administered by Trinity College and is based on academic merit. The award duration covers the full length of the course. Applications are considered on the same timeline as the funding deadline for the course, with results announced by March 31, 2026.
