Global Excellence Scholarship

The Global Excellence Scholarship is Teesside University London’s primary initiative to reward academic brilliance among its international applicant pool. For students from Bangladesh, this scholarship serves as a significant financial incentive, recognising the hard work and high grades achieved during their undergraduate studies at home.

Unlike many competitive awards, the Global Excellence Scholarship is designed to be accessible. It is automatically assessed, meaning there is no separate, daunting application form to complete. Instead, the International Scholarships Committee reviews your initial course application and academic transcripts. If your CGPA meets the university's excellence threshold, the discount is applied directly to your tuition fees. This streamlined process ensures that the most talented Bangladeshi students are supported from the moment they receive their offer, reducing the financial barrier to accessing a world-class education in the heart of London’s innovation district at Here East.

Tuition Fee Reduction: A direct £2,000 discount on your total tuition fees for the first year.

No Separate Application: Automatic consideration saves time and reduces the stress of additional essay writing.

Financial Planning: Knowing the scholarship amount early helps Bangladeshi students meet the financial requirements for their UK Student Visa (CAS) more easily.

Merit Recognition: Official acknowledgement from the university of your high academic standing.

To be eligible, a candidate must:

• classified as an Overseas fee payer (international residency status).
• a self-funded student (not fully sponsored by a government or agency).
• entering a full-time postgraduate taught program (MA/MSc) at the London campus for the first time.
• Demonstrate academic excellence (typically a high CGPA in your Bachelor's degree from a recognised Bangladeshi university).
• Accept your offer and pay the required deposit by the deadline specified in your scholarship offer email.

Level: Postgraduate Taught (Master’s level only—MA, MSc).

Fields of Study: Available across all postgraduate disciplines offered at the Teesside University London campus, including Business, Computing, and Creative Technologies.

Exclusions:

• Research degrees (PhD, MPhil).
• Foundation or Pathway programs (though you may be eligible upon progression to the full degree).
• Teesside University Online courses.

Teesside University London is the capital’s hub for one of the UK’s most forward-thinking universities.
