The University of Birmingham is proud to be working with the Marshall Scholarships program.
The Marshall Scholarship program was instituted by the British Parliament in 1953, named in honour of General George C Marshall, as a thank you to the American people for the assistance given to Europe in the aftermath of World War II through the European Recovery Program – commonly known as the Marshall Plan.
This program is open to young Americans wishing to do graduate study for two or three years at universities throughout the United Kingdom.
The University of Birmingham is offering two new awards, for Marshall Scholars intending to study for any graduate degree at this University. The conditions of eligibility are as follows:
1. The Marshall Scholar has been selected by the Marshall Aid Commemoration Commission (MACC) Committees to study at the University of Birmingham.
2. The Marshall Scholar is planning to read for a graduate degree in a subject offered at the University of Birmingham.
3. The Marshall Scholar is accepted at the University of Birmingham through the usual admissions process.
If these conditions are satisfied, the University of Birmingham will annually cover the Scholar’s tuition fees for up to three years and the MACC will cover all maintenance costs.
