DEADLINE 22 May 2017

The School of Arts and Communication Design is pleased to announce the availability of a Scholarship Scheme for the three pathways of the MA Creative Enterprise: Art, Communication Design and Film, for the Academic Year 2017-18. The Scheme will award a tuition fee discount of £1,000.00 to the best candidate for each of the three pathways.

Terms and Conditions

1. To be considered, applicants must have applied for or accepted an offer of a place on MACE-Art, MACE- Communication Design or MACE-Film. Applications for admissions into the MA programme and applications for a scholarship can be made at the same time, but a final decision on the scholarship will not be made until a place has been offered in the programme. Do not apply for a scholarship unless you have already applied, or are simultaneously applying, for admission into the MA Creative Enterprise.

2. Applicants must meet the School’s entry requirements. Awards are intended to acknowledge and support students with a very strong academic record.

3. A maximum of one scholarship will be awarded per student, for each of the three pathways described above, totaling three awards.

4. UoR alumni are automatically entitled to a 10% discount on their MA tuition fee; should this discount be lower than £1,000.00, UoR alumni are allowed to compete for a top-up discount of up to £1,000.00 in total.

5. An award will only apply for the coming academic year and cannot be deferred.

6. Successful candidates will be contacted on an individual basis via email. Please allow at least 4 weeks following the scholarship deadline for a decision.

7. Candidates for MACE-Communication Design are subject to further conditions. Please contact Dr Keith Tam, on [email protected] for further details.
