Kindly supported by a generous gift from Santander Universities, up to 15 scholarships worth £1,900 are available. Applications are welcomed from prospective Durham University students from selected countries with a household income below £42,875.
The Santander Scholarship was essential for me to be able to come to Durham University, which was one of the few universities in the world to offer an Anthropology postgraduate course for professionals with different BA studies.
Financial Criteria
In order to be eligible for support, students will come from families who have a household income* level of £42,875 or below per annum and who are able to provide confirmation of their 2022/23 student loan entitlement together with appropriate evidence to support their request for financial support.
If your income has not been assessed by the Student Loans Company you will need to provide evidence of your household income in the form of documents such as:
*Your household income is that of your parent(s), in the household you were living in immediately prior to commencing studies. There are exceptions, which are a) if you are a postgraduate student, b) if you were aged 25, on the first day of the academic year support is being applied for, c) you have been married (even if now separated or divorced), d) you were financially self-supporting for at least three years prior to the commencement of your course, e) you have no living parents or that they cannot be traced/contacted. If any of these exceptions apply, then the household income is determined by your personal income.
