by Last verified: 16 October 2026. We checked these Falmouth University postgraduate scholarships against Falmouth’s official funding pages.
Falmouth University’s postgraduate scholarships for international students, including the £3,000 (three thousand pounds) Postgraduate Country Awards, are still listed for September 2026 only. Falmouth hasn’t published its 2027 awards yet. Here’s what the current round offers, so you know what to expect.
Falmouth University postgraduate scholarships (September 2026 round)
| Award | Value | Who |
|---|---|---|
| Postgraduate Country Awards | £3,000, credited to the second tuition instalment | Self-funded students from listed countries |
| Creativity in Everything Award | £2,000 | Any international-fee student |
| Sustainable Leader Award | £3,000 | MSc International Business Management or MSc Entrepreneurship & Innovation Management |
| EU Postgraduate Scholarship | Fee reduced to the home rate | EU students |
Which countries the Country Awards cover
The listed countries are China, Colombia, India, Indonesia, Mexico, Taiwan, Thailand, Turkey and the USA. One list on the page also includes Hong Kong, but the other doesn’t, so check with Falmouth. Nigeria, Ghana, Kenya and Pakistan aren’t listed.
The award is automatic once you hold an offer and pay the acceptance fee, for full-time, on-campus taught Masters. You can combine it only with the Sustainable Leader Award.
Worked example: Falmouth University postgraduate scholarships for two students
Ananya from Bengaluru, on an MSc International Business Management, could get the £3,000 Country Award plus the £3,000 Sustainable Leader Award, £6,000 (six thousand pounds) in total. Kwabena from Accra isn’t covered by the Country Awards, so his option is the £2,000 Creativity in Everything Award. See our UK student visa requirements guide for next steps.
How to apply for Falmouth University postgraduate scholarships
Falmouth has no fixed application deadline. It accepts Masters applications at any time and fills places as they arrive, so apply early.
- Check the entry rules on your course page and talk to your Applicant Support Officer.
- Prepare a personal statement, your ID, transcripts, any portfolio or writing sample, and two references (one academic, one professional). Our personal statement guide covers the statement.
- Submit through the online portal and attend an interview if Falmouth invites you.
- Pay the acceptance fee. The Country Award and EU scholarship then apply automatically, while the Creativity in Everything and Sustainable Leader awards also need a short online interview.
For English, you need IELTS Academic 6.5 overall, with at least 5.5 in reading, writing and listening and 6.0 in speaking.
Deposits, fee instalments and accommodation
- On-campus deposit: £2,500 (two thousand five hundred pounds) for visa nationals, or £500 for non-visa nationals.
- Residents of Bangladesh, Nepal, Pakistan and Sri Lanka pay half their first-year fees before Falmouth issues a CAS.
- You pay on-campus fees in two halves, and the Country Award comes off the second half.
