Application Deadline: 11.59pm UK time on 4 June 2027.

LOCATION: United Kingdom

The University of Leicester is offering full tuition fee waivers to high-achieving international undergraduate students starting an eligible course in September 2027. The award supports students with strong academic potential, clear ambitions, and a commitment to contributing positively to the university community.

ELIGIBILITY:

To be eligible to apply, you must:

Have a valid offer for a full-time campus-based undergraduate programme at the University of Leicester, starting in September 2027, either for year one entry or direct entry into year two or three.

Be classed as an international student for fee purposes.

If you applied via UCAS, make Leicester your firm choice to be considered for this scholarship by the deadline given on your UCAS hub.

If you have not applied through UCAS you must have firmly accepted your offer directly with us by 4 June 2027.

You must normally achieve the international qualification equivalent of two grades above the standard A-level entry requirement for your course. For example, if the standard A-level requirement is ABB, the scholarship requirement would normally be equivalent to AAA. The University will determine the appropriate academic threshold where an international qualification does not allow an exact equivalent, or where you are entering year two or three.

Applications are now open and will close at 11.59pm UK time on 4 June 2027.

To apply, complete the scholarship application form and submit a valid video link. Videos should be submitted as a link to Google Drive, YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, WeChat Video or Douyin in the section indicated in the application form.

Alongside the video submission, they will also take into consideration any extracurricular activities you have highlighted in the application form.

You may apply for multiple scholarships, but you can only be awarded one University scholarship. If you are eligible for more than one award, the University will normally award the highest-value scholarship.

BENEFIT:

A full tuition fee waiver is available for up to 30 international fee-paying undergraduate students starting an eligible undergraduate programme in September 2027. The award covers tuition fees for each year of the course, up to a maximum of three years
