In 2012, WMG will be awarding up to £500,000 in scholarships and bursaries to students on our full-time MSc programmes. Note that these awards apply only to students who will commence their studies Autumn 2012.

Special Bursaries for students from Latin America, Iran, Turkey and Syria

If you are deemed for fee purposes to be from a Latin American country, Iran, Turkey or Syria then you will automatically be awarded these tuition fee bursaries. There is no need to apply for these awards and there is no deadline, they are given to all eligible offer-holders who are from these areas. Note that the Turkish and Syrian awards are dependent on your final GPA as awarded by a recognised Turkish / Syrian Institution. If you are a Turkish or Syrian national but studied at undergraduate level at a University outside your home country, a judgement will be made by us on the GPA equivalence. These awards will be paid towards tuition fees only.

Scholarship awards

The following competitive scholarships are available for offer holders who will start in 2012. There is no need to apply for these awards, all eligible students will be considered, however you must have an offer from us and have accepted it by the end of June 2012.  Applications will be considered during the first two weeks of July and winners notified soon afterwards. Winners will be selected on the basis of academic merit. These awards will be paid towards tuition fees only and are offered only to self-funded students who commence studies in October 2012.

Early Acceptance Scheme

Students paying the overseas tuition fee rate who are offered a place our courses can request a place on the Early Acceptance Scheme (EAS). Once accepted onto the scheme you must pay a £500 deposit which is credited to your tuition fee account. This deposit must be paid within 4 weeks of acceptance onto the scheme. In return, WMG will give you a £1000 discount on your overall fees.

The £500 deposit is non-refundable, so we will not repay the deposit if you subsequently choose not to study with us, or fail to meet the conditions of your offer. Only join the scheme if you are absolutely sure you intend to study at WMG starting autumn 2012. We recommend that students on conditional offers DO NOT apply for this scheme.

If you are an offer-holder and want a place on the scheme, you must first accept your offer .

You must have an offer of a place from WMG before applying for the scheme.

• We will not accept EAS applications or deposit payments from a third party.
• Places on the scheme are very strictly limited with places allocated on a first-come-first-served basis.
• There are a total of 80 places available for 2012. We expect the scheme to fill very quickly so we recommend you apply as soon as possible.
• The scheme is only available to students who have offers for the full-time MSc courses run by WMG in the UK, it is not transferrable to other courses at Warwick.
• The Early Acceptance Scheme is not available to students paying home/EU fees.
