Scholarship in United Kingdom

Who is eligible for UK 9/11 scholarships?

Are there any restrictions on nationality for applicants?
There are no restrictions on nationality or on residence in other countries.

Are there any age restrictions for applicants?
There are no age restrictions for applicants for 9/11 scholarships, and there are no restrictions on mature students applying. But, in practice, your suitability will be determined by your capacity to meet the entrance requirements of the institution(s) you are applying to.
We encourage potential applicants to start considering their option of applying for a 9/11 scholarship some 18 months before the intended start date, for example, at Grade 10 level at high schools in the USA, or while they are in their second year of undergraduate study (if you are intending to apply for a Master’s course).

How do I know whether I qualify for help under the needs criteria?
The UK 9/11 Scholarships Fund is required under the terms of its endowment to ensure applicants demonstrate need, hardship or distress. This means that applicants must provide standard information relating to the income and assets of themselves or their parent/guardian, as requested in the application form.

Can I apply if I started but did not finish an earlier tertiary education course?
You may apply for a scholarship under these circumstances but should be prepared to explain why you gave up your earlier studies. You will of course need to satisfy the entrance requirements of the institution(s) you are applying to.
