Eligibility
The Sustainable Development Goals adopted in 2015 by the United Nations will determine the course of the global social, ecological and economic agenda until 2030. If we are to successfully achieve them, we need to be able to work across traditional disciplines and we therefore encourage scholarship applications from all eligible programmes of study.
You must:
- apply for a University of Southampton course before you apply for the scholarship
- have a course offer before the scholarship closing date
- pay the overseas tuition fee
You must not be in receipt of any external scholarship, that is more than or equal to your tuition fees.
The Southampton Presidential International Scholarship is not available to students studying:
- on PGCert, PGDip, Foundation or PGR courses
- on Distance Learning courses
