Are You Looking For Funding Oppurtunities?

[Admin]

Below are some links to pages that give information on possible scholarships or other funding opportunities.

Many universities, bilateral donors and international organizations will have a range of funding opportunities so it is worth searching their websites using terms such as "funding opportunity" or "scholarship" or other likely terms.

Remember, if you apply for a scholarship or other funding support, the application process may take several months, so you need to start well ahead of the start date for any particular course that you may be hoping to do. However, for some types of funding you need to have secured a postgraduate place at a university before you can be considered for financial support - so always check.
