University of Bath School of Management Expands Scholarships to Support Global Business Talent
The University of Bath School of Management is taking a big step in supporting the next generation of business leaders. With up to £3 million in scholarships, students from around the world now have greater access to a world-class UK business education. These awards are designed to ease financial pressures, allowing students to focus on building strong careers—especially with the advantage of the UK’s graduate visa, which lets graduates stay and work in the country for 18 months after completing their degree.
Known for its strong academics and close industry connections, Bath’s School of Management has long been a destination for high-achieving students. The new scholarship funding reinforces the university’s commitment to helping talented students from India, Pakistan, Vietnam, and beyond.
The scholarships are offered as fee waivers for full-time MSc students, and exceptional candidates can combine multiple awards up to the full cost of tuition. For September 2026 entry, applicants must hold an offer for an MSc programme and submit their scholarship application by 4 February 2026 (decision by 28 February) or 8 April 2026 (decision by 8 May).
Students share their experiences
The impact of these scholarships is already evident in the journeys of past recipients. Ayushi from India, who received a full tuition scholarship for her MSc in International Management, says it has completely reshaped her journey. “Be true to who you are and make sure your personality comes through in your answers,” she advises future applicants. “Don’t be afraid to talk about your milestones.”
Noor from Pakistan, who received both the country-specific scholarship and a discretionary award, describes studying at Bath as a milestone achievement. “Do your research, be clear about your goals, start early, and just shoot your shot,” she says.
Trang from Vietnam discovered Bath at a scholarship fair and was drawn to its international reputation and highly rated MSc in Business Analytics. With £20,000 in combined scholarships, her advice is simple: “Give yourself enough time to think about your personal statement. If you’re thinking about applying to Bath, just go for it. If you never try, you’ll never know.”
These stories reflect Bath’s philosophy: recognising talent, rewarding excellence, and giving students the confidence to pursue ambitious goals.
