Scholarships

Scholarships are rarely available in the UK for full undergraduate studies, but are more common at Masters level (though they are only partial). There are a few available from our partner universities, but these are only partial and do not cover the full amount for your tuition fees. External agencies exist that provide scholarships for US students wanting to study abroad in the UK - we can help you with information about these.

US Financial Aid Information

Our partner universities have undergone an approval process to be recognised by the US federal government as foreign institutions that US students can come to study and use their financial aid in the UK. You will need to apply for your Financial Aid in the US before you arrive in the UK. On your application you should list our partners as your choices of institutions you want to study at (you can list more than one), so that our partners will then receive your information from the government regarding your financial aid package. Your Across the Pond advisor can give you the codes for each of the universities that are required for your FAFSA application form.

Work While You Study

You can work for up to 20 hours a week while you study in the UK. A typical wage is $8 - 10 an hour


Scholarship Information

Several of our partner universities offer partial scholarships of up to 50% of tuition fees, but please note that scholarships are not common in the UK and you should expect to be able to pay for tuition and living expenses without any financial aid. Financial aid from the US (Stafford loans/aid from your current university, etc.) is acceptable at all our partners.
