About This Opportunity

The Scottish International Education Trust was the brainchild of Sir Sean Connery and exists to give financial help to Scots men and women who show exceptional ability and promise. The grants are awarded on the basis of application for a specific sum, which may be linked to a particular purpose such as tuition, fees, books, materials, or travel. These are primarily one-off grants, though in the case of a course or activity lasting more than one year, grants may be repeated but usually only for one succeeding year. Priority is given to postgraduate students working for a higher degree or similar qualification, especially where the applicant will gain international exposure and experience, or where the course proposed does not qualify or the applicant is not eligible for assistance from public funds.
