The Lancaster Master’s Excellence Scholarship recognises and rewards students from around the world with a range of scholarships available across all four of our academic faculties. The scholarships are awarded as a fee reduction and the amount is determined by the faculty offering your chosen programme, the associated programme fee level, and the grade achieved from your undergraduate degree at the point of entry.
To find out which faculty your chosen course falls under, visit the relevant course page and look for the section "Your department."
