Yes, the UCL Global Master's Scholarship may be held alongside other scholarships, studentships, awards, or bursaries. However, you are obligated to inform the UCL Student Funding Office immediately if you are awarded any other funding for your Master's degree studies.
Q.How is 'lower income background' defined for eligibility?
