To honour Dame Dr. Maggie Aderin-Pocock, PhD, as the University of Leicester’s Chancellor, they are pleased to offer their Chancellor’s International Scholarship to all international fee-paying students who meet our entry requirements for an undergraduate taught degree. Dame Maggie was born in London to Nigerian parents and is an award-winning space scientist, broadcaster, and author.
ELIGIBILITY:
This scholarship rewards academic achievement for all international qualifications equivalent to British A-levels.
You must be classified as an international student for fee purposes.
You must be starting a full-time, campus-based undergraduate course (includes STEM International Foundation and all ‘International Year 1’ courses), commencing in September 2026.
The fee discount will be calculated on the basis of the standard tuition fee for each year of your course.
The scholarship will not apply for periods of industrial placement or overseas exchange, resit years, or if you suspend your studies for any reason.
In accordance with scholarship guidelines, students are allowed to hold only one University of Leicester scholarship. If you are awarded more than one scholarship, you will only receive the higher-value award.
If you currently have a conditional offer of a place at the university, you will still need to fulfill any conditions stated on your offer letter.
There is no need to apply for this scholarship. Eligible students will be automatically considered. If successful, you will be notified when you submit your final results.
BENEFIT:
This scholarship, worth £3,000 per year, reflects the university’s commitment to attracting talented students from around the world.
