Director
UCFB postgraduate scholarships are highly limited and competitive with far more applicants than available awards. When applying for a scholarship, you must be a current UCFB postgraduate applicant, holding a firmly accepted offer on a postgraduate course.
Step 1
The first step is to apply for a Postgraduate degree via the UCFB Learner Portal.
You must have firmly accepted an offer on one of our Postgraduate courses before you apply for a scholarship.
Step 2
The next step is to review our Scholarship portfolio. We recommend you study this in detail, and ensure you match the eligibility criteria of the award, bursary, or support payment you are applying for.
Step 3
Once you have an offer firmly accepted, you can then apply for a Postgraduate Scholarship via the UCFB Learner Portal using the Scholarships tab.
You can also apply for multiple scholarships and are not restricted to just one.
Remember, it is important that you apply ahead of the Scholarship Application Deadline.
Step 4
Thank you for submitting your application! Once applications are received and the deadline closed, our internal panel will decide on your application and you will be contacted before the start of the academic year.
