• Applicants must hold an offer for a full-time postgraduate taught programme delivered on campus at Aston University, Birmingham, commencing in January 2027, April 2027, September 2027.
• Applicants must be entering the first year of study of their postgraduate taught programme.
• Applicants must meet all academic and non-academic conditions stated in their offer letter.
• The Scholarship is available only to self-funded students. Applicants whose tuition fees are wholly or partially funded by a sponsor are not eligible, unless the sponsor has a formal written agreement with Aston University explicitly confirming eligibility for this Scholarship.
• For the avoidance of doubt, any employer contribution, reimbursement, or third-party funding, whether paid directly to the University or reimbursed to the student, will be treated as sponsorship and renders the applicant ineligible.
• Meeting the eligibility criteria does not create an unconditional entitlement to the Scholarship. The Scholarship is awarded only once all eligibility, offer conditions, deposit payment, and enrolment requirements have been satisfied.
• Applicants acknowledge that they should not make financial, immigration, or personal decisions in reliance on the expectation of receiving the Scholarship until it has been formally applied following successful enrolment.
