• A tuition fee reduction worth £3,000, £6,000 or £16,000 depending on the tier you're awarded.
• The reduction applies to your first year of study on an eligible taught master's course.
• It can usually be combined with Regional Scholarships or external funding, as long as the total doesn't exceed 100% of your tuition fees.
• A large number of awards each year (the university has offered hundreds in a single cycle), improving your chances if you qualify.
• Keep in mind the award covers tuition only. It doesn't pay for maintenance, living costs or accommodation, and it can't be backdated or carried over to a future year.
