Student bursaries
We provide a range of scholarships and bursaries to help you thrive and succeed at university.
The School of Social Sciences is committed to widening access and ensuring that higher education is accessible to students from all backgrounds. Through bursaries like the Graham McKenna-Mayes Memorial Fund, Laura Nuttall Scholarship and Lemn Sissay Law Bursaries we continue to break down barriers and support students to thrive during their studies and beyond.
The University of Manchester also offers several bursaries for undergraduate, postgraduate taught and research programmes, including the Cowrie Foundation Scholarships, Raheem Sterling Scholarships and Undergraduate Access Scholarships.
