for Graduate Students
- These generous International Scholarships awards are aimed at fully funding you if you are from a developing country and will study a full-time Masters degree at the University.

- Amount: Full tuition fee waivers, accommodation, living expenses and flights to and from London.
- Eligibility: You must be an international student from a developing country and hold an offer for a full-time Masters degree.
- Criteria: Academic excellence, development potential and financial need.
Application procedure and presentation guidelines
Important points
- Apply for International Scholarships only after you have been offered a place (conditional or unconditional) on a course at the University of Westminster.
- Please do not apply if you have already enrolled or begun a course of study at the University of Westminster.
- Read the information on individual scholarships carefully and ensure that you only apply for ones that you are eligible for and meet the criteria of. For example, do not apply for the Vietnam Scholarship unless you are f rom Vietnam.
- Photocopy the application form at the back of our scholarships brochure or print the form from our website.
- Use the same application form when applying for more than one scholarship.
- Attach the relevant papers only and keep your supporting documents to a minimum. The quantity of documents sent does not give any advantage.
- Attach translations where supporting documents are in any other language but English.
- Word process the application as far as possible. If handwriting the application, please ensure it is written clearly and in block letters. Illegible applications will be considered ineligible.
- Keep your application concise. If we ask for 400 words we mean it, as it is a test of how you can marshal your argument concisely. Exceeding the limit will greatly reduce your chances of an award.
- Unless you are applying for a specific scholarship, just tell us what level of support you require eg, fees only, fees and accommodation etc and we will match the scholarship to your needs where possible.
- Provide us with a valid email address. The University and its Scholarships Committee is not responsible for opportunities missed because of an invalid email address.
- Only send copies of your academic transcript as we will not be able to return any original documentation sent.
- It is acceptable for your university to send transcripts to us directly, but we will not be able to return them to you at any stage.
- If, as an international student, you are already in the U.K. please explain why.

Thank you!
I am Tesfaye Mehari from Ethiopia. I have been graduated from Arba Minch University (Institute of Technology ) in Applied Geology on 2, June, 2011. I stayed in the university four years in studying geology. During my stay in the university I took all geology and related courses and having taken the courses I knew and understood more about earth sciences in general and geology in particular. Since geology is field oriented department, I am familiar to field works because I have experienced in the three field works ( sedimentary petrology, igneous petrology and metamorphic petrology ). Geologists spend most of their lives in field works to feel, understand, know and simulate how earth was operating, is operating and will operate in the future. This is actually a must to some one who wants to be geologist because field works are the only books for geologists to read through and live within. Moreover, I have built my knowledge through my B.SC thesis project. The thesis project that I have run through was on the ” Investigation and Exploration of Suitable Quarry Sites ” . From the thesis I not only investigated and explored quarry sites but also I knew the engineering properties of construction materials. While I was in the university, I engaged in environmental club called ” Rift Valley Club “. This club is all about how to keep and sustain our planet earth at least and the universe at large. I have further strengthened my understanding about earth sciences from this club. I have also involved in some charity clubs like HIV/AIDS and Anti- corruption clubs when I was in the university. Currently, I am working as an instructor in Haramaya University, Ethiopia.
I am at the beginning of my journey to geology. Actually journey to geology has no an end but we may close to the end if we have got our belts fastened and strengthened. I am feeling good that the journey is promising but possible if some one ( to whom I am applying ) is pushing me up to make the journey true and real. What I am requesting now is to have scholarship chance in abroad in master program in the fields of geology or in any other related fields and to dig through it. My request is suspended in the air and I will be glad if my request is being welcomed and succeeded.
Best regards,
Tesfaye M.
