University of the West of England (UWE Bristol) - Caribbean and Latin America Scholarship (UWE Bristol)

What you get

You get a 5,000 GBP (about 5,900 EUR) discount on your tuition fees for your first year at the University of the West of England (UWE Bristol) in the UK. This is a one-off reduction on what you pay the university, not a cash payment. UWE Bristol offers it to students from the Caribbean and Latin America to bring more people from those regions to Bristol.

Who can apply

• Where you are from: You are from a country in the Caribbean or Latin America, such as Brazil, Mexico, El Salvador, Paraguay or Peru.
• Offer from UWE: You already hold an offer for a course at UWE Bristol. This can be conditional (you get the place if you meet set conditions, such as final grades) or unconditional (the place is confirmed).
• Level of study: You apply for an undergraduate or a postgraduate course. Both count.
• Ambassador role: If you win, you agree to promote the university during your studies, for example by helping UWE reach students in your country.

How to apply

Record a short selfie video and send it via WeTransfer to the university. State your name, country and UWE Welcome ID, then answer three questions: why you chose UWE Bristol, what you look forward to most, and how UWE could attract more students from your country. The deadline is 31 May for a September start and 31 October for a January start. You hear back after each deadline.
