Annual Fund postgraduate scholarships

Through gifts made by Kingston alumni to the Annual Fund, the Development Office offers up to 16 postgraduate scholarships to UK and EU students (classified as Home students for fees purposes) each year. 

The aim is to encourage academic excellence and allow talented young graduates to continue to higher levels of learning and research.

The scholarship:

  • offers 50% of fees up to £3,000 on one-year full-time, or two-year part-time masters programmes; and
  • is available for students on all courses (except teacher training/PGCE courses).

Selection criteria

You need:

  • a first-class honours or 2:1 in previous degree;
  • a strongly supported reference as to why you deserve this scholarship;
  • to be classed as 'Home' for fees purpose; and
  • have already received an offer of a place to study at Kingston.

Please note that financial need is not a consideration that will be taken into account.

Deadline

The closing date for scholarship applications is 5.00pm on Friday 30 August 2013 for entry into the 2013/14 academic year.

We cannot consider applications received after this deadline.
