Don't just take it from us. Read about how the UCL Master's Bursary helps graduates take the next step in their career.

I stayed at UCL to do my Masters and I knew we were running a bursary scheme for students from lower income backgrounds. The Postgraduate Loan would not cover all of the tuition fee costs, let alone the maintenance costs. Receiving the bursary meant I could afford to do a Masters. Thanks to my Masters, and by extension the bursary, I was able to secure a fully funded PhD position at De Montfort University.
