Terms and conditions

As this is funded by the University of Sussex, it is not possible to combine this with other Sussex scholarships (for example, the Country Scholarships which includes the Sussex India Scholarship, Sussex Turkey Scholarship etc.). Applicants can apply for multiple scholarships but it is only possible to receive one, normally the highest value award.

Recipients of the Chancellor's International Scholarship will still receive the Engineering & Informatics International Masters Award, which is a further £3,000 fee reduction.
