General Eligibility: These awards are open to all students who have made an application to the Faculty of Medicine by 30 April 2015 for admission to study for a full time or part time Master’s course* at Imperial College London, starting in October 2015 (*or PG Cert for a course where that is the only route to the higher degree).

-It is not essential for applicants to have already received an offer of a place on a course, but the initial course application must be made before applying for a scholarship.
Academic Eligibility: -Candidates are expected to be able to provide evidence of outstanding academic ability. This will usually mean being among the highest achievers in their undergraduate cohort and in receipt of, or due to receive, a first class UK Honours degree or equivalent.
-An applicant who does not meet this requirement (e.g. holds a second class undergraduate degree, is a health professional who did not undertake a degree course, or is from a non-traditional background*), will be considered if they are able to demonstrate that they have outstanding academic potential and substantial experience relevant to their chosen subject area. This should be included in the Personal Statement section of the application form. (*Those applicants without a degree will be required, where available, to pass a Special Qualifying Examination to gain entry to the chosen course).
-Candidates with degrees from overseas institutions are strongly urged to determine if their scores/grades are equivalent to the relevant eligibility criteria.
-Candidates who already have a postgraduate qualification should justify their request to have an additional postgraduate course funded by the faculty. This should be included in the Personal Statement section of the application form.
-Candidates who wish to apply for a Master’s course which starts as a PG Cert or PG Dip will only be considered if they are committed to completing the course to Master’s level.
-Scholarships awarded based on predicted grades will be conditional upon final results.
