Scholarships and Funding

The Global Wales Postgraduate Scholarship programme offers 24 scholarships - each worth £10,000 - to study a full-time masters programme in Wales. The scholarships are available to students from Vietnam, India, the USA and countries of the European Union.

Chevening is the UK Government’s global scholarship programme, offering future leaders a unique opportunity to study in the UK. As part of the UK, Wales has agreed a new programme which is funded by the Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) and Universities Wales.

The Awards are part of the Benjamin A Gilman International Scholarship Programme, which enables outstanding American students of limited financial means to study overseas for up to one academic year as part of their undergraduate studies. It is open to applicants at accredited US higher-education institutions, and enables students to earn academic credit while studying at any Welsh university.

The Fulbright programme is among the most prestigious and competitive academic exchange schemes in the world. These awards foster mutual understanding between the United States and Wales, building relationships, knowledge, and leadership in support of the long-term interests of both nations.

Welsh universities are committed to producing the most innovative, creative and employable graduates in the UK.

The best advertisement for studying in Wales is the people who have done it – including these graduates who have gone on to career success.

Now completing her second degree at Cardiff Met, Nikki Pham from Vietnam found Wales to be the perfect environment for entrepreneurs with a big idea.

As a student, you’ll enjoy a great quality of life, whether your taste is for art and culture, socialising or exploring our great outdoors.
