About This Opportunity

The Saïd Foundation Scholarship is a fully-funded scholarship program for students of Syrian, Jordanian, Lebanese, or Palestinian nationality who reside in one of these countries. The scholarship supports talented students pursuing full-time Masters programs at Goldsmiths, University of London, with the aim of contributing to the development of their home country or region. This comprehensive scholarship covers all major expenses including full tuition fees, complete maintenance and living costs for the entire duration of the course, an arrival allowance to help with initial settling-in expenses, visa and healthcare surcharge fees, and one economy return flight. The program seeks candidates with professional or voluntary experience relevant to their field of study, a clear career path, and demonstrated leadership potential. Applications are accepted across all subject areas, making this an interdisciplinary opportunity. The Saïd Foundation awards 20-30 scholarships annually, providing exceptional support for Middle Eastern students to pursue graduate education at Goldsmiths. Special consideration is given to Syrian applicants who may be residing outside Syria due to current circumstances in the country, and flexibility is shown to candidates applying from Gaza.
