Scholarships at Leeds University Business School

Leeds Masters Scholarships – worth £7,000 – aim to encourage eligible UK fee-paying students from under-represented groups to study a Masters qualification.  

For successful applicants, the Leeds Masters Scholarship can be awarded as a fee waiver or as monthly payments direct to you. These scholarships are funded by a combination of generous alumni donations and University funding.

Eligibility criteria

You can apply for a Leeds Masters Scholarship if you meet all of the main criteria and one of the financial criteria. This does not mean you will automatically get a scholarship, but we will consider your application carefully. 

Main criteria

You must meet all the three main criteria: 

• Start a full-time, part-time or distance learning Masters course (which is not 100% online with the Digital Education Service) at the University of Leeds in September or October 2025. This must lead directly to an MA, MBA, MEd, MMus, MPH, MRes, MSc, LLM or Masters by Research qualification. Please note, students undertaking an integrated Undergraduate and Masters degree are not eligible to apply for a Leeds Masters Scholarship. 

• Be paying postgraduate tuition fees at the UK rate. 

• Not already hold a Masters degree. 

Applications close at 12pm midday (UK time) on Monday 9 June 2025.
