Exeter Excellence Scholarships - Postgraduate Taught

Other eligibility requirements

Our Exeter Excellence Scholarships recognise outstanding academic achievement, offering funding to help cover the costs of studying at the University of Exeter. We are committed to attracting talented students from around the world to become part of our dynamic university environment, where you will have access to exceptional teaching, learning, and academic research whilst contributing to our vibrant global community.

You can apply for one of these scholarships if you:

• have International fee status (including any EU applicants required to pay International fees in 2026/27)
• already hold an offer (conditional or unconditional) to study an eligible Postgraduate taught degree at the University of Exeter, beginning in September 2026.

(These scholarships are intended for self-funded students.)

Scholarship recipients are selected on:

• Academic merit, based on the information you have supplied in your Masters programme application.  Applicants will typically be expected to demonstrate that they have achieved or are able to achieve the equivalent of UK upper second class degree (2:1). See our Entry Requirements pages for further guidance.
• The ability to demonstrate the following as part of the application process: academic and career ambitions; a clear plan for making the most of the study opportunity; a sense of social responsibility and willingness to engage with the Exeter community.
