Interested in University of Salford's scholarships for internationals

I've been looking into the University of Salford and want to understand what scholarships are offered for international students. What are the best ones available, and what requirements should I be aware of?

For international students, the University of Salford does offer numerous scholarships, so you're already looking in the right place!

One of the primary ones is the International Scholarships. This scholarship is worth up to £5,000 and is open for applicants of any subject area. The award amount is based on academic merit and is determined based on the strength of your application and your performance at interview if applicable.

Another key scholarship is the Vice-Chancellor’s International Excellence Scholarship. This is a particularly prestigious scholarship, offering a full tuition waiver for one academic year to an outstanding international student.

A third popular scholarship is the Loyalty Discount, which offers up to a 20% discount on tuition to students who have previously graduated from the University of Salford or Salford City College.

In terms of requirements, the International Scholarships generally require you to be an offer holder, have a strong academic background, and not be receiving any other University scholarship. The Vice-Chancellor’s scholarship, however, often has additional requirements, such as an outstanding academic record and a well-written application essay. The Loyalty Discount is available to University of Salford or Salford City College graduates.

Do note that deadlines for each scholarship can vary, so it's important to prepare your application in advance and submit it on time. Each scholarship has its own application process which is detailed on the University’s website, so you should review that information carefully when preparing your own application. Remember, scholarship criteria can change from year to year, so always refer to the official university website for the most accurate and up-to-date information.

Remember, you may be able to apply to more than one scholarship, but the awarded amount might not accumulate depending on the terms and conditions of each scholarship, so do read up on these too. Best of luck with your applications!
