Scholarships

A number of grant schemes are available to provide financial assistance to outstanding Executive MSc in Cities applicants who would not otherwise be able to meet the full cost of tuition.

As only a limited number of awards are available, we use a selection process that considers both the quality of the applicant and their financial need. The former will be judged on the information provided in the programme application (submitted through ÐÓ°ÉÂÛ̳ Graduate Admissions) and the latter will be assessed according to information provided in the Executive MSc in Cities Scholarship Application Form.

Applications for the 2025/26 cycle is now open.

Deadline to apply is 12.00 (Noon) local London time on 31 March 2025

Details of our current support can be found below.
