Overview
The Martingale Foundation has opened its 2027 scholarship round for eligible students pursuing master's or PhD study in mathematical sciences and AI at UK partner universities.
Complete scholarship details
Applicants first apply to Martingale, with shortlisted candidates interviewed in November 2026. Successful qualified candidates then apply to eligible partner-university programmes, and Martingale-funded places are allocated after university offers. The programme is designed for students with strong academic potential who face financial barriers to postgraduate study.
Eligibility requirements
Applicants must have achieved or be on track for a First or Upper Second Class degree or equivalent in a relevant subject, be eligible to begin a UK master's or PhD in September 2027, qualify for Home Fee status at partner universities, meet specified UK/Ireland schooling criteria unless covered by the refugee-status exception, and demonstrate financial barriers including household income of £45,000 or less.
Tips for this scholarship
Practical Job and Scholarship guidance. These tips do not replace official rules or create new eligibility requirements.
- Check eligibility, funding coverage, study/project level and every required document before investing time in the application.
- Prepare transcripts, references, language tests, proposal/motivation statement and proof documents early.
- Separate the scholarship deadline from any university/program admission deadline; they may be different.
- Treat “fully funded” as a source fact only when the official provider explicitly confirms the covered costs.
Verification notes
Verified on the Martingale Foundation's official application page. Applications opened 12 August 2026 and close at 23:59 on 18 October 2026. The source does not state the exact scholarship amount on the application page, so no amount was invented.
Job and Scholarship is the discovery and verification layer. Confirm eligibility, dates, salary/funding and application instructions on the original source before submitting anything.
