Funding and scholarships | School of English | University of Leeds

The University offers a range of Masters funding to help support you during your time studying with us.

Before you apply for any funding, you'll need to have applied to your chosen course. You can apply for more than one funding opportunity, but may have to choose which ones to accept if your applications are successful.

School Scholarships

Within our School we also offer the Brontë International Scholarship, which supports scholars of literature and creative writing, during their Masters level studies.

The Alumni Bursary offers a 10% reduction in tuition fees to University of Leeds graduates. This reduction only applies to the self-funded portion of your tuition fees (i.e. anything not paid by other awards, scholarships, or funding).

Alyse Fan MA English Literature (Romantic Pathway)

The small class size of the taught modules was perfect, since it enabled everyone in the seminars to be fully engaged in the discussions. I also enjoyed working on my dissertation; it was amazing to see the original ideas in my mind being explored and transited into words. My supervisor was very supportive, and the guidance that I’ve received truly helped me to improve my critical thinking and research skills.
