Edinburgh Global Undergraduate Mathematics Scholarships

Other eligibility requirements

The Edinburgh Global Undergraduate Mathematics Scholarship is awarded to international applicants who demonstrate outstanding academic performance. 

We are offering a number of scholarships for applicants demonstrating the highest levels of academic achievement. The scholarships are worth £5,000 each and will be paid directly to students in instalments as contributions to living costs. These awards will be tenable for the duration of the programme of study and are subject to satisfactory academic progress.

A student is deemed to have made satisfactory progress in each year if there has been a formal School decision of either “Progress” or “Conditional Progression”, without the student needing to repeat a year. If the student does not make satisfactory progress in any one year, the award will terminate from that point onwards. 

The scholarships are awarded to applicants with International fee status who are accepted for full-time admission to an undergraduate degree programme hosted in the School of Mathematics at the University. UK nationals are not eligible for this scholarship.

The scholarship is not available to students already on programme. It is also not available to students studying Mathematics as part of a degree programme hosted by another School within the University.

Applicants should have applied to the University of Edinburgh through the University and College Admissions Service (UCAS), but do not need to have received an offer in order to begin the scholarship application process. The scholarship is competitive and based on academic merit.
