🇬🇧 2025-26 Full Fees Scholarship by British Chambers of Commerce at UCL

2025-26 Full Fees Scholarship by British Chambers of Commerce at UCL

If you’re passionate about urban planning but can’t afford the tuition, there’s good news. The British Chambers of Commerce (BCC) has teamed up with the Royal Town Planning Institute (RTPI) and The Bartlett at University College London (UCL) to offer a fully funded scholarship for the 2025–26 academic year.

   

This scholarship could cover your entire tuition fees for either the Urban Regeneration MSc or the Spatial Planning MSc — and it’s aimed at students who often face barriers to postgraduate education.

Who Can Apply?

This opportunity is for UK-based students with home fee status who want to study full-time at UCL in 2025–26. But to qualify, you’ll also need to meet at least one of the following:

  • Have a financial need (verified by UCL)
  • Be from a Black, Asian, or Minority Ethnic background
  • Belong to a Gypsy, Roma, or Traveller community
  • Have a disability
  • Be a care leaver
  • Hold care responsibilities
  • Be the first in your family to attend postgraduate university

You also must:

  • Be domiciled in the UK
  • Hold an offer to study Urban Regeneration MSc or Spatial Planning MSc full-time
  • Not have a Master’s or PhD from UCL or any other university

Why This Scholarship Matters

This is more than just a financial boost. The BCC, RTPI, and The Bartlett are working to create a more inclusive and diverse planning sector — one that reflects the real communities shaping modern cities.

Whether you grew up in a low-income household or you’re the first in your family to attend university, this scholarship could be your chance to build a rewarding career in planning with no tuition cost.

You’ll need to write a 350-word personal statement as part of your UCL application. Your statement should cover:
