Transform Together Scholarships

How you can apply for Transform Together Scholarships as an international student.

We value high-achieving international students at Sheffield Hallam University. Our Transform Together Scholarships are meant for you as you start your full-time taught course.

We award these scholarships based on a demonstration of your excellent academic achievement and your potential to represent the University as an ambassador.

Apply now for September 2026.

What you could get

A half fee waiver (50% discount) is available for full time undergraduate and postgraduate taught courses.

Undergraduate scholarships apply to the first year of study only.

Transform Together scholarships

• are applied as a tuition fee reduction

• cannot be transferred or deferred to a later start date.

Remember, you can only receive one scholarship or award for each course of study.

Who can apply

You can apply for a Transform Together Scholarship if you:

• have been offered a place on a full-time postgraduate taught course at Sheffield Hallam University starting in September 2026.

• are an international fee-paying student.

• are fully self-financing your studies. This means that you are not receiving any funding for your studies from an external source such as a government, a scholarship provider, a company or an employer. 

• you are classed as self-funded if a family member or friend funds your studies.

• are able to pay the remainder of your tuition fee and any additional fees your course may require, for example field trips.

• must meet the English and academic requirements for your course.

If you are applying at postgraduate level, you also need to:

• have at least a 2.1 or equivalent in your undergraduate degree.

• be entering postgraduate study for the first time, have not been awarded a postgraduate qualification either in the UK or overseas in the past. Transform Together postgraduate scholarships are strictly for students progressing from undergraduate to postgraduate study. 

You cannot apply if you:

• are already enrolled upon the Sheffield Hallam University course for which you are applying for a scholarship.

• have previously received a Transform Together Scholarship at the same level of study.

• are applying to study a Sheffield Hallam course at a partner institution outside the UK.

• are applying for a foundation programme.

If you are applying for a foundation programme, you will be able to apply for the scholarship when you progress to an undergraduate degree course.

We reserve the right to only consider applicants for a scholarship if they have accepted an offer for their course of study. We strongly advise applicants to accept their offer of a place on the course by the scholarship closing date.

The deadline for submitting your scholarship application is 31 May 2026.
