  2. Ensure your UK bank details have been entered correctly in MyCampus. Go Abroad Scholarships will be paid via MyCampus before you leave

If your application for a scholarship or free place was unsuccessful but you still want to attend a Summer School:

  • Many of our partners offer discounts to University of Glasgow students. You may want to ask them if this applies to your chosen course
  • Partner institutions and external agencies may offer their own scholarships or financial assistance. Many institutions will advertise these on their websites. It is your own responsibility to research and apply for these opportunties
