Scholarships for UK master's programs are usually applied directly to your tuition fees after you receive an offer of admission.

- Application timing: You must first secure an admission offer - some scholarships require this to be unconditional. Deadlines vary by university and program.
- Fee deduction: If you win a scholarship, the awarded amount (e.g., £3,000) is typically deducted from your tuition fees. You'll pay the remaining balance, sometimes shown on an updated invoice.
- Key points: Eligibility, deadlines, and whether you can combine multiple scholarships depend on the university and scholarship policy.
