In recognition of the high standard of applications they receive for their degree programmes they are delighted to offer their International Undergraduate Merit Scholarship to international students demonstrating exceptional academic achievement.
ELIGIBILITY:
This scholarship rewards academic achievement for all international qualifications equivalent to British A-levels.
If you achieve the equivalent of two grades above the standard A-level entry requirement for your applied course, you will be awarded a discount from the standard tuition fee per year. Students who complete their STEM International Foundation Year or International Year 1 course with an overall score of 70% or above will also be eligible for this scholarship.
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.
Discretion will be applied where an equivalent level is not practically attainable within the marking scheme of particular international qualifications.
You must be classified as an international student for fee purposes.
You must be starting a full-time, campus-based undergraduate course 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.
BENEFIT:
This merit-based scholarship, worth £5,000 per year, is offered to international-fee-paying students applying for (or progressing onto) an undergraduate degree at the University of Leicester who achieve or exceed the academic grades.
