One School of History MA by Research Fees-only Scholarship
The School of History Masters Scholarship is for full fees at the UK/EU rate.

Eligibility
In order to be eligible to be considered for these scholarships, you must:

We aim to process your application for a place on a course as soon as possible which is usually within 2-4 weeks of receipt. However, during our busiest times (April-June), this process can take up to 6 weeks. Please bear these timescales in mind when seeking scholarships because you need to have received your offer of a place on a course before scholarship panels meet. Ensuring you provide all relevant documents will help us process your application according to these timescales.
