Overseas Research Scholarship (ORS)
Details:
Newcastle University is committed to offering support to the very best international students hoping to pursue a programme of research. We are pleased to offer a small number of University funded ORS awards for outstanding international students who apply to commence PhD studies in any subject in 2013/14. Each award (value approximately £5,000 to £9,000 per annum) covers the difference between fees for UK/EU students and international students.

You could be eligible to apply for an ORS award if:
• You have been offered a place on a PhD research programme
• You have been assessed as international/overseas for fees purposes, and are wholly or partially self-financing
• You intend to register to start your studies during the 2013/14 academic year.
Applications for an ORS award cannot be made for a course that has already been started by a student.
