Liverpool Hope University is committed to encouraging applications from students with high academic qualifications who will benefit from study in the UK. Liverpool Hope University is pleased to announce a new scheme of International scholarships for students applying for a Liverpool Hope University programme in 2008/09.
International Postgraduate Scholarships are available to Postgraduate applicants and are worth half the tuition fees (e.g. 50% discount on fees). The number of International Postgraduate Scholarships available is five annually. The Interantional Postgraduate Scholarships are
awarded by the decision of the University Committee based on academic merit, community involvement, and future aspirations, as shown in the submitted application.
Criteria to apply: Applications are welcome from International students who have achieved first class results in their final degree classification and can demonstrate high academic achievement and high social and community involvement.
How the International Postgraduate Scholarships are judged:
Scholarships applications are reviewed in the preceeding month after the deadline by the Liverpool Hope University Student Finance Committee.
Applications are not only judged in terms of academic excellence, but also by the applicant’s social and community contribution.
It is important to show on the application the extent to which your study on the chosen Liverpool Hope Postgraduate programme will enhance your future, the future of your community, and the future of your country.
Applications should show how the applicants study will enhance the social and economic development of their home country when they return after their studies.
Evidence of relevant paid and/or voluntary work done, or particular contributions to the wider community, should also be included in the application.
