Scholarships at Brunel University London

Brunel Medical School (BMS) is pleased to offer 5 prestigious scholarships for International students. The scholarship scheme is for overseas fee-paying applicants only and the awards will be based on merit.

Award details

Value: Each scholarship has a total value of 15% of the annual tuition fee across the duration of the 5-year course, (for example, 15% of year 1 tuition fee in year 1, 15% of year 2 tuition fee, etc) subject to satisfactory progress. The scholarship award will be deducted from tuition fees; it will not be awarded as cash.

Eligibility

To be eligible for a Brunel Medical School International Scholarship an applicant must:

• Apply for and fulfil the academic criteria for admission to the Brunel Medical MBBS programme

• Be in receipt of an offer to study on the full-time MBBS programme starting in September 2023 and have paid the deposit by the deadline, which is normally at the end of May 2023.

• Applicants must meet all conditions of their offer by the time they are due to register at Brunel

• Must be classed as an overseas fee-paying student based on the UK regulations. Applicants who are unsure of their fee status should note Brunel uses the information they have provided in their application form to assess fee status against regulations set by the UK government.

• Those who need to undertake an English Language course at Brunel Language Centre (BLC) prior to starting the MBBS can apply for a Brunel Medical School International Scholarship.

Those not eligible for these scholarships:

• Applicants NOT classed as overseas for fees purposes based on the UK government regulations, or those with an unresolved fee status.

• Applicants sponsored by their home governments.

• Applicants who will NOT commence their course in September 2023.

• Brunel graduates awarded the 15% Graduate Discount applied to the net tuition fee.

The Brunel Medical School Admissions team will be responsible for reviewing the eligibility of students.

Conditions of fee waiver

• Scholarships are awarded for September 2023/24 entry only and cannot be deferred to later months or years of entry. Course applicants who intend to defer their studies must re-apply for a scholarship in the year they will begin their studies.

• Scholarship recipients will be responsible for paying the remainder of their tuition fees after the scholarship contribution is deducted from the total fees for each academic year.

• The scholarship does not replace the deposit of £10,000. All scholarship recipients will need to pay the £10,000 deposit for their course in order to receive an unconditional offer and a Confirmation of Acceptance of Studies (CAS). The amount of their scholarship will be deducted from the remaining fees.

• The fee waiver will only be made providing the student is fully enrolled at the University on the Brunel Medical MBBS programme, which includes having had their qualifications and other documentation verified and checked, and then completing the University enrolment procedures. This includes holding the correct visa to study.

• Payment in subsequent years will only be made providing the student progresses to the next level of study [scholarship payments will not be made during a repeating year until the student has satisfactorily progressed to the next level].

• Scholarship holders are expected to perform well in their studies, and to uphold a high level of professionalism and integrity. Scholarships may be withdrawn if students fail to meet the above expectations.
