Funding your studies
There are many potential sources of funding for your postgraduate studies, so it’s a good idea to review your options early. Most funding agencies and bodies operate strict deadlines and there is a lot of competition, so ensure you allow plenty of time to apply for any funding you require. The majority of postgraduate students don’t gain funding to cover both tuition fees and living expenses, so it’s important to think about how you’ll support your studies. A good starting point is to visit our website.
Funding for taught postgraduate degrees There are a range of scholarships, grants and other funding available to apply for if you’re looking to study a postgraduate taught degree. See page 34 for more information about Royal Holloway’s portfolio of postgraduate scholarships. 32
