Chancellor's International Scholarships - University of Sussex

Up to forty Chancellor's International Scholarships of £2,500 are available to new overseas fee paying students each year who are applying to study at Undergraduate and Postgraduate taught degree level. The scholarships are available in the majority of Sussex Schools, and are awarded on the basis of academic performance and potential.
