Edinburgh University Bursaries and Scholarships

Mrs. Wyllie — Fri, 12 Mar 2010 12:45:44 +0000

The link for Edinburgh University Bursaries and Scholarships is

http://www.scholarships.ed.ac.uk/

The a-z list is probably the place to start, but Access and Accommodation Bursaries seem to have been the easiest to get over the last few years. Wherever you have applied it is worth checking out how you can secure supplementary funding streams.

Once you have accepted an offer, you can start the process with SAAS (Student Awards Agency Scotland - http://www.student-support-saas.gov.uk/ )
