Postgraduate Global Scholarship (international) 2026

The Postgraduate Global Scholarship 2026 is an automatic tuition fee discount awarded to international students enrolling at Keele University based on their undergraduate academic achievement. The scholarship provides tiered awards of £5,000 for first-class degrees, £4,000 for upper second-class honours (2:1), and £3,000 for lower second-class honours (2:2), assessed according to Keele University's defined equivalence standards. This scholarship is available to self-funded international students who are registered on and attending a taught postgraduate course that equates to at least one year's full-time study and leads to a named award of at least Postgraduate Diploma level. The scholarship is generally a one-time award, though students in MSc Nursing or MSc Prosthetics and Orthotics programs may receive the award twice to cover both years of these two-year programs. The scholarship is awarded automatically upon application, with no separate application required. It is provided as a tuition fee discount and cannot be combined with other bursaries, scholarships, or discounts. The award is specifically for students starting their studies in the academic year 2026/27 at Keele University's campus-based programs. Students studying PGCE programs or fully online courses delivered by Keele are not eligible. Social Work students receiving full external funding are also excluded, though those with partial funding may be eligible for a proportional award on the fees they pay individually.
