For 2020/21, to support you though the challenges of the global pandemic, we are pleased to offer international students beginning a standalone postgraduate taught Masters degree (e.g MA, MSc, MRes, MFA) or research degree (e.g MPhil/PhD) with us a University of Exeter Global Commitment Scholarship of £2,000 towards the cost of their tuition fees.
Entry requirements
The Global Commitment Scholarship is available to international students for all standalone postgraduate programmes excluding the following non-standard courses and those delivered by a partner business or other institution:
In order to be eligible for the scholarship, you must be classified as an international student for fees purposes, wholly or partly self-funded, meet the entry requirements for your chosen programme and enrol on this programme in 2020/21.
How to apply
The scholarship will be automatically applied to eligible postgraduate applicants enrolling for study beginning in the 2020/21 academic year. A separate application is not required. (The scholarship application deadline that appears below is for internal administration purposes only.)
If you are yet to make your programme application then please visit our postgraduate study pages where you will find links to our online programme application system.
This award is not recurrent for subsequent years of study.
Ordinarily you cannot receive more than one scholarship from the University of Exeter, with the exception of any Prompt Payment Reward to which you might be eligible. However, for 2020/21 a further exception has been applied to the Global Commitment Scholarship, which can also be held in conjunction with another University-funded scholarship. If you are eligible for multiple scholarships, you will be awarded whichever scholarship has the higher value and then the Global Commitment Scholarship will be added on top.
To be eligible, the applicants must have an undergraduate degree from a recognized university.

The University of Exeter combines world class research with excellent student satisfaction at its campuses in Exeter and Cornwall. It is a member of the Russell Group of leading research-intensive universities. Formed in 1955, the University has 25,263 students from more than 130 different countries. Its success is built on a strong partnership with its students and a clear focus on high performance.
Recent breakthroughs to come out of Exeter's research include the identification and treatment of new forms of diabetes and the creation of the world's most transparent, lightweight and flexible conductor of electricity. Our research focuses on some of the most fundamental issues facing humankind today and, in order to continue our reputation, we are furthering investment in research infrastructure. Development of our new £52.5 million Living Systems Institute research centre is now complete. It will focus on disease prevention through predictive biology and will eventually house 200 scientists. It follows a major refurbishment project, which saw the creation of world-class research and teaching facilities for Biosciences.
Exeter was named The Times and The Sunday Times Sports University of the Year 2015-16 acknowledging the University as the best in the country in academic and athletic achievement across a wide range of sports. The University was also voted the Sunday Times University of the Year 2012/13. It is ranked amongst the UK’s top universities in the Higher Education league tables produced by the Times and the Sunday Times. It is also ranked amongst the world’s top 200 universities in the QS and Times Higher Education rankings.
Exeter has always been among the leaders for student satisfaction in the National Student Survey. The senior management team has sought to build on this strength by putting student service at the centre of its strategy. The Students' Guild is involved at the earliest stages of strategic planning and given a major role in making spending decisions through a specially created Budget Scrutiny Group. This has led to a remarkable degree of joint thinking and team work.
The most visible expression of this partnership is the Forum, a £50m student services building which provides a centrepiece for the Streatham Campus and which opens onto an attractive piazza. It houses a purpose-built student services centre, 400-seat lecture theatre, a shop, bank and café. Other new facilities on the Streatham Campus include the INTO building which provides flexible teaching spaces, a lecture theatre and a learning resource centre for international students to improve their English.
The Penryn Campus has benefited from the Environment and Sustainability Institute; a £30 million interdisciplinary centre that leads cutting-edge research into the consequences of environmental change and the mitigation and management of its effects, while the Exchange building provides a lecture theatre, library facilities and spaces for small group discussions and exhibitions.
Exeter’s success has been built upon strong foundations of leadership, governance and management, a relentless focus on performance and a sector leading partnership with its students.
