Teesside University is delighted to offer Global Scholarships to international fee-paying students in recognition of academic and English language ability.
These scholarships apply to full-time students on foundation, undergraduate, postgraduate taught and postgraduate research programmes, in the first year of study, enrolling in September 2020 or January 2021. (Students enrolling in January 2020 will be assessed for the scholarships applicable to the 2019/20 academic year. These scholarships have a value of either £1,000 or £1,500 based on the same eligibility criteria outlined below). The scholarships are available to both sponsored and self-funded students, as a tuition fee reduction. The value of the scholarship is either £1,500 or £2,000, based on your GPA or IELTS score. The University assess your eligibility automatically and will communicate a scholarship award following your academic application.
You may receive one of the following scholarships:
The english language requirements for each course and therefore the levels that will be used in allocating these scholarships can be found here.
Students in receipt of a scholarship from an external body, not funded by Teesside University, may also be considered for a Global Excellence Scholarship.
If you hold an English language test score other than an IELTS, you have the option to submit it and sit an interview with the English Language Centre. The University will then assess if you are eligible for an English language scholarship with a value of either £1,500 or £2,000.
Alternatively, if you combine your in-country qualification with an interview with the ELC, the following criteria will apply.
