Generic Info about Scholarships at UWC for reference

At all UWC schools and colleges, it is our basic philosophy to select students purely on merit and their financial background is not a hindrance for them to be selected. Therefore, the UWC Scholarship Scheme provides scholarships and fee remission to selected students according to their financial need on a means-tested basis.

A range of scholarships amounts are given according to need up to a full scholarship. A full scholarship to attend a UWC covers tuition, textbooks and accommodation fees. Scholarships do not cover air fare, travel expenses, pocket money and other incidental expenses.
