EU Scholarship

Following the UK’s exit from the European Union, if you’re an EU, EEA or Swiss national, starting a course at a UK University, you will no longer be eligible for the same fees as UK students. You’ll pay the same fees as an international student.

For September, at the University of Portsmouth an EU Scholarship will be applied to your fees reducing them to the same amount as UK students. To be eligible for an EU Scholarship you need to be an EU, EEA or Swiss national and resident.

The scholarship will apply to new undergraduate, postgraduate taught and postgraduate research students for the following intakes: September and January.
