Scholarships and grants
At Portsmouth we have the EU Transition scholarship. There is no application necessary for this, and it is based on students having an EU or EEA passport, and a minimum of three years of residency in the EEA or EU prior to their course start date. The scholarship brings their fees down to home levels, for example, undergraduate course fees are then £9,250.
