We are currently accepting scholarship applications for courses starting in January 2025. The closing date for applications is 01 November 2024.
We are no longer accepting scholarship applications for courses starting in September 2024.
Benefits
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.
Requirements
You can apply for a Transform Together Scholarship if you:
- Have been offered a place on a full-time undergraduate degree course or postgraduate taught course at Sheffield Hallam University starting in January 2025.
- 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.
