Scholarship application process
The scholarship application form is available below.
When submitting the application for a scholarship, you will be asked to pay a deposit of £20. If you are unsuccessful in your application for a scholarship, the deposit is non-refundable, but can be put towards the cost of any other registration option (e.g. standard in-person student registration or online student registration).
Faraday scholarships and bursaries are awarded by open competition. The application procedure requires the submission of sufficient information to make assessment equitable. The Faraday Institute emphasises that it cannot engage in any discussion or correspondence about why a scholarship or bursary application is unsuccessful.
To apply for a Faraday Scholarship, please fill in the application form below and submit online with the £20 deposit payment. If you have any questions regarding scholarships, please contact events@faraday.cam.ac.uk.
