International UG Prizes –
awards of 25% of the tuition fee for each year of study that you are a

Eligibility for the Scholarship:

Eligible
Countries: UK/EU
and Overseas students are eligible to apply for this scholarship programme.

Entrance
Requirements: When
you apply for the scholarship you need to be in possession of a conditional or
unconditional offer for the first year of an undergraduate degree course
starting at UEA in September 2018. Your offer should state that you are
an international fee-paying student.

To
be classified as an international fee-paying student you typically need to be a
non-EU resident. Our fees and funding page has more details of who
will pay international tuition fees, and therefore be eligible to apply
for these scholarships. If you are still in doubt then email our Planning
Office who can advise you further.

You
need to be independently funding your studies, which mean that you can’t apply
if an organization is sponsoring your study and paying your tuition fees for
you. However, if you are getting a government loan you can still apply for the
scholarships.

Please
note that offer holders for courses in Norwich Medical School, Occupational
Therapy or Physiotherapy are not eligible to apply for this
scholarship.

You
are eligible for an Undergraduate International Scholarship under these Terms
if you meet all these criteria:

You are an overseas fee-paying
student. If the fee status changes during your course from Overseas to
Home/EU Fees the scholarship shall be discontinued. Other scholarships are
available for UK and EU citizens, details can be found at https://www.uea.ac.uk/study/undergraduate/scholarships/scholarships-for-2017-entry
Scholarship applicants must
hold either a conditional or unconditional offer for year 1 of study on an
undergraduate degree course at UEA at the time when they submit the
scholarship application form for an eligible course.
To receive the scholarship you
must have selected UEA as your firm choice institution, not your insurance
choice. The scholarship offer-holder must meet all remaining conditions
for entry to the University. The scholarship is offered for a specified
course; there is no guarantee that the scholarship will be transferred to
an alternative course.

English
Language Requirements: International
applicants are required to provide evidence of proficiency in the English
language if English is not their first language.
