Students who are CAS ready in CAS Shield by May 31st for the September 2026 intake, or, by 31st October for the January/February 2027 intake, will be eligible for an extra £500 scholarship, on top of an existing USW scholarship. This scholarship applies to each year of study.
How does this work?
- Their student record needs to be CAS ready by May 31st for the September 2026 intake or CAS ready by 31st October for the January/February 2027 intake.
- What does CAS ready mean? They have fully completed CAS Shield with all relevant documents and their deposit has cleared.
- Students who are CAS ready by 31st May for the September 2026 intake will receive an additional £500 scholarship added to their CAS.
E.G if they have applied for MSc Management with a £2,500 Chancellor’s International Development Scholarship, they will receive a £2,500 scholarship on their offer letter. However, if they receive a CAS by 31st May, the scholarship will be £3,000 instead.
The Early CAS scholarship excludes ACCA courses, MBA Global Advanced Entry, DBA, PhD, MPhil, Masters by Research and any pre-sessional or pathway provider course.
Note that they may also be eligible for an extra Early Payment Discount of £300. In order to qualify for this discount, they must pay the balance of their course fee for the year to the University no later than 14 calendar days after the start date of their course as indicated on their offer letter.
