Hey there, future scholars! Ready to dive into the whirlwind world of funding your dreams at Bournemouth University (BU)? As an international student who’s been there, and got a scholarship from BU to prove it, I’m here to spill the tea on how I unlocked funding opportunities and made my academic dreams a reality.

Picture this: you’re dreaming big about studying abroad, but your finances keep crashing the party. Fear not, my friends, because BU’s Academic Excellence Scholarship is here to save the day! I didn’t need to take a test or pass a step. I simply had to prove that I had a good academic background and £3,500 was deducted from my fees. That is approximately a 22% deduction! It made a huge difference for me financially and I was able to begin my Masters without financial stress.

Fear not, you are not limited to only this scholarship as an international student. There are several scholarship opportunities for both undergraduates and postgraduate international students. From the prestigious Chevening scholarship, where the UK government foots the bill for your postgrad dreams, to specialized scholarships tailored for students from specific countries like Indonesia, the world of funding is your oyster at BU. And let’s not forget about the music and sports scholarships—because who says you can’t chase your passions while chasing your academic dreams?

As I bid you adieu, fellow dreamers, remember this: the road to scholarship success is paved with grit, determination, and a healthy dose of fun. My journey at BU has been a rollercoaster ride of scholarship shenanigans and academic adventures, and I wouldn’t have it any other way. So, take a leap of faith, dive headfirst into the world of scholarship opportunities at BU, and watch as your dreams unfold before your very eyes. Here’s to funding your future, one scholarship at a time!
