What can make it affordable

The International Baccalaureate Excellence Scholarship gives £5,000/year to overseas undergraduates — one of the few named, disclosed undergraduate awards we found at Imperial. For PhD applicants specifically, the President's PhD Scholarships are far more generous: full tuition plus a £26,500/year stipend plus a £2,000/year consumables fund for your first 3 years.

The undergraduate IB Excellence Scholarship requires a separate application, not automatic consideration. The President's PhD Scholarship isn't nationality-restricted on paper, though Imperial notes some departments may not be able to fund international candidates specifically — it also requires a separate application plus departmental nomination, with three application rounds a year rather than one fixed deadline. Imperial also runs a GREAT Scholarship (£15,000 toward postgraduate taught tuition) and hosts the Commonwealth Shared Scholarship (full tuition plus stipend, postgraduate taught) — both require separate applications too.

If you've heard of a 'President's Scholarship' for incoming undergraduates, that's not accurate — the named 'President's' award at Imperial is specifically for PhD candidates, not undergraduates.
