About the scholarship
The University of Dundee Global Excellence Scholarship rewards outstanding international students beginning a full-time, on-campus taught Master’s programme in January 2027 with an £8,000 reduction in tuition fees. It is a partial award — a fee discount, not a fully funded scholarship: it does not cover living costs, travel, visa fees or the Immigration Health Surcharge. There is no separate application; the admissions team assesses every eligible course applicant automatically.
