Application criteria
In your application, you will be asked about your achievements, study plans and reasons for choosing to study with us. Make sure you have enough time to prepare strong answers. We will assess your responses and academic merit when making scholarship decisions.
Please note that there is a strict word count limit for all questions, which is outlined at the end of each question. The system does not automatically limit this, so you would be encouraged to check your application before you submit. Any responses submitted that exceed the outlined word count may not be reviewed.
Scholarship requirements
You do not need to respond to your offer before submitting your application for this scholarship, however awards will only be made to students who accept their offer to study with us. We will contact you in early July 2023 to confirm the outcome of your application.
If you are awarded this scholarship, it will be deducted from the tuition fees charged to you as a student at the University of Nottingham. We will not pay tuition fee scholarships to you directly.
In some cases students are eligible to apply for more than one University of Nottingham award. You may also be eligible to apply for our Developing Solutions Masters Scholarship, but please note that while the Postgraduate Excellence Award is a merit-based scholarship, the Developing Solutions scholarship is a specialised award that requires students to demonstrate vision, passion, and a plan for a specific developing solution. It is possible to apply for and be considered for both of these scholarships, however you will only be awarded one.
In no scenario would a Developing Solutions Award be combined with a Regional Scholarship, and in the unlikely event you were to be offered both, the highest value award would take precedent. Very occasionally students may be offered Developing Solutions alongside a scholarship from their Academic School, or a Sporting award. To maximise the reach of University’s Scholarships offering, we aim not to double award, but in exceptional cases this may be possible where the combined total does not exceed 100% of tuition fees.
