Annual Fund postgraduate scholarships

Through the generous support of Kingston alumni to the Annual Fund, we are able to offer approximately 20 postgraduate scholarships to progressing Kingston University undergraduate students (who are classified as 'home' students for fees purposes) for courses starting in September. The aim is to encourage academic excellence and allow talented graduates to continue to higher levels of learning and research.

The scholarship offers a £3,000* (full time) or £1,500* (part time) reduction in fees for taught masters courses in the:

• Kingston School of Art
  
• Faculty of Business and Social Sciences
• Faculty of Science, Engineering and Computing

Alternative scholarships are available for UK students and international students.

Other financial support is also available for postgraduate students.

* Please note that the Annual Fund scholarship cannot be combined with other Kingston University scholarships or discounts. Therefore, for those who are eligible for a 15% or 10% fee discount, the total discount they would receive for each year of their course, if awarded an Annual Fund postgraduate scholarship, would be £3,000 (full time courses) or £1,500 (part time courses).
