We are delighted to partner with the Aziz Foundation to provide scholarships for British Muslim students pursuing a Master’s degree at UCL Social & Historical Sciences.
About the Aziz Foundation
The Aziz Foundation was established in 2015 by the Aziz family with the objectives of reducing inequality in education and addressing the social challenges faced by British Muslims. The foundation provides financial and professional support to aid career advancement and empowers recipients to bring positive change to their communities, industry and society as a whole.
Application process
Scholarship applications are submitted via an online application form on the Aziz Foundation website. If your application is shortlisted you will be invited to attend an interview with the Aziz Foundation.
Applications for Master’s study should be submitted via UCL’s online application portal. You do not need to have received an offer to study at UCL before applying for the Aziz Foundation Scholarship.
An offer of study by UCL does not imply that this includes the Aziz Foundation Scholarship, nor does the awarding of an Aziz Foundation Scholarship imply that the applicant has been made an offer to study at UCL.
Key dates
Applications for the 2024/25 Masters Scholarships open on 15 January 2024.
The assessment and awards process will be carried out over two cycles in 2024:
Cycle | Application dates | Interview dates | Award dates |
1 | 15 Jan from 11am – 28 March, 12 noon | Feb-April | Mid May |
2 | 2 April from 11am – 14 June, 12 noon | May-July | Late July |
The earliest start for courses we can consider is June 2024.
If your course starts between June-August 2024, you must apply during cycle 1, otherwise we will not be able to consider your application.
For courses starting from September 2024, you may apply in either cycle.
You may apply only once in any given year (either in cycle 1 or cycle 2 but not both).
