Additional Requirements
The Pre-sessional English Refugee Scholarship is for 2023 Pre-Sessional entry only and cannot be deferred to a future year. The Pre-sessional English Refugee Scholarship is for 6-week or 12-week Pre-sessional Courses only. The Pre-sessional English Refugee Scholarship is for students preparing for degree level study or academia. It is not a general English course and is not open to applicants who do not have a goal of entering university. First priority will be given to applicants who hold an undergraduate or postgraduate offer from Aberystwyth University for 2023 entry. Only after Aberystwyth applicants have been considered will applicants who hold a 2023-entry undergraduate or postgraduate offer from other universities, or other applicants, be considered. The Aberystwyth Pre-sessional English Refugee Scholarship is for refugees or other sanctuary seeking students who: a. have a conditional or unconditional offer for an undergraduate or postgraduate degree starting in September 2023, January 2024 and b. do not speak English as their first language and c. meet the entry requirements for either the 6-week or 12-week Pre-sessional course and d. either need a Pre-sessional Course to meet the English Language entry requirements of their undergraduate offer or do not have an English language condition in their undergraduate / postgraduate offer but are deemed by the International English Centre at Aberystwyth University to have a level of English that would allow them to benefit from a Pre-sessional Course and e. are entitled to financial support funded by the Student Finance Company for their undergraduate / postgraduate degree or are funding their own undergraduate / postgraduate degree from other sources (excluding the Aberystwyth Sanctuary Scholarship) and f. are assessed by the University's Immigration & Compliance Team as a refugee or sanctuary seeker with the right to study in UK.
