The University of Glasgow is offering the International Leadership Scholarship for the academic year 2026-2027, providing a partially funded opportunity for international and EU students to pursue Master’s degrees in the UK. Around 281 scholarships will be awarded to highly motivated students with strong leadership qualities who have received an offer letter for a postgraduate program starting in September 2026. This scholarship covers £10,000 towards tuition fees and allows students to benefit from the University of Glasgow’s world-class academic programs and international learning environment.
The scholarship is open to citizens of eligible countries with an excellent academic record, equivalent to UK first-class honours. Applicants must hold a bachelor’s degree and have international or EU fee status. The University of Glasgow, a leading public research university in Scotland, is one of the oldest English-speaking universities, ranked #79 in the QS Global World Ranking 2026, and hosts around 1,500 international students participating in exchange programs and scholarships.
Eligible programs for the International Leadership Scholarship include a wide range of Master’s degrees across disciplines such as arts and humanities, business, engineering, computer science, health sciences, law, social sciences, environmental studies, and more. Students can choose programs that align with their academic and professional goals.
Required documents include academic transcripts, degree certificate, one reference on headed paper, a copy of the passport, and any other program-specific documents as required by the University of Glasgow. There is no separate application form for this scholarship; students are automatically considered based on merit once they receive an offer letter. The application process is conducted online, and students need their student ID and application number to be considered.
The Glasgow International Leadership Scholarship provides international students with the opportunity to experience high-quality UK education, enhance leadership and professional skills, and gain exposure to global perspectives while pursuing a Master’s degree abroad. Deadlines vary depending on the program, so applicants should verify the submission date for their chosen course.
