About this opportunity
The Scottish Social Services Council (SSSC) provides postgraduate bursaries for nominated full-time home students studying MSc or PGDip Social Work at Robert Gordon University. This bursary is specifically designed for students with a household income of less than £34,000. The bursary provides financial support valued at £3,415 to help qualifying students pursue their social work education. Students who receive this bursary cannot access additional funding through the Student Awards Agency Scotland (SAAS) and therefore should not apply to SAAS for tuition fee loans or living cost loans. RGU nominates students for the bursary rather than students applying directly, and the SSSC contacts nominated students to determine their final eligibility.
