The Vice Chancellor’s scholarship is offered to all international students on all courses and will be applied at the time fees are paid. For students who have already paid, the scholarship will be applied retrospectively.

Available for undergraduate, postgraduate, pre-masters, MBA and research programmes, the scholarship is dependent on the amount of tuition fees paid at or before registration. The amount is variable but can be as much as £2,900 for a postgraduate course to £2,750 for undergraduate courses.

International students make a valuable contribution to the University’s global community, with over 4,000 international students from more than 100 countries studying at the University each year.

The University of Bedfordshire recently welcomed the decision by UK Visa’s and Immigration (UKVI) to allow the University to resume recruiting international students.

 Welcoming the decision Bill Rammell, the University of Bedfordshire’s Vice Chancellor, said:

“I was always confident that our procedures for monitoring international students were robust, and I’m pleased that UKVI’s thorough and detailed audit has confirmed this.

 “We recruit large numbers of international students because of our excellent student experience and graduate employability success.

 “And 92% of Bedfordshire students find employment or are in further study soon after they graduate – one of the highest rates in the country.”

 The University of Bedfordshire was awarded the Queen’s Anniversary Prize for Higher and Further Education in 2013 – the highest form of national recognition for universities in the UK.
