Apply

Once you've received an offer of a place for a qualifying course, the ‘my funding’ page on your UAL Applicant portal will be updated to display application forms for scholarships you may eligible for.

Your completed UAL UK/EU Postgraduate Scholarship (Route 2) application form and supporting evidence must be submitted by 1pm on Tuesday 30 June 2020.

As you will need to be holding an offer on an eligible course in order to apply for the scholarship, it is recommended that you make a course application as soon as possible in order to receive an offer with enough time to apply for the scholarship.

Receiving payment

Scholarships will be awarded by a UAL selection panel. The panel will make their decision based on the validation of evidence submitted to prove eligibility and a review of the statements provided as a part of the UAL UK/EU Postgraduate Scholarship (Route 2) application process.

You can apply for any UAL award or scholarship where you meet the eligibility criteria. If you have successful applications for more than one UAL award or scholarship, we will ask you to choose which of them you will receive, as you are only permitted to hold one at a time.
