This scholarship will be awarded as a reduction in tuition fees; it cannot be paid as cash or attributed to other charges such as accommodation fees. It will be automatically deducted from your first year tuition fees following enrolment. If you choose to pay your tuition fees in instalments, the award will be deducted from the total annual tuition fee and the remaining balance split accordingly.
This award is for one year and is not recurrent for subsequent years of study.
You cannot normally receive more than one scholarship from the University of Exeter; if you are eligible for multiple scholarships, you will be awarded whichever scholarship has the higher value.
If your tuition fees will be financed by an external body (such as an overseas government or Chevening, Commonwealth or a partner University) with whom the University has a shared financing agreement this award may be invalidated or superseded with a different fee arrangement.
It is your responsibility to inform us if you are in receipt of any external funding prior to enrolment; please email a copy of the award letter to Admissions pg-ad@exeter.ac.uk.
If you defer your 2024/25 programme offer, then your scholarship offer will be invalidated. In the event that you withdraw or interrupt your studies post enrolment then the University Finance regulations at that date will apply as regards any repayment or other requirements: http://www.exeter.ac.uk/students/finance/studentfinanceregulations/
