The CUCAS University Scholarship is awarded to cover or subsidize the cost of tuition. The scholarship money will therefore be paid directly to the university the student is attending. If the tuition fee is less than US$1000, the exact amount of scholarship money awarded will be equal to the tuition fee, thereby covering the full cost of tuition for scholarship winners. If the tuition fee is more than US$1000, the winner will have their tuition fee subsidized by US$1000; the remainder of the tuition fee must be paid by the student.

Applicants for the CUCAS University Scholarship must first be accepted by one of our designated universities. Those who haven’t met this prerequisite can browse the list of Designated Universities to apply for a school and fill out the online application form.
