Royal Holloway offers a number of bursaries and scholarships to support taught postgraduate students and works with external scholarship providers to try to ensure our postgraduate students have a range of funding options.

We offer a range of financial support that is targeted at those from low income families, mature students and care leavers, along with a package of scholarships for the most academically gifted. Of course, many students will be eligible for both.
Royal Holloway also offers a number of scholarships to overseas students and also works with external scholarship agencies who provide funding for international students to study in the UK.
