Anglo-Spanish Society Scholarships, King's College London

Overview

The Anglo-Spanish Society has existed for over 50 years, as a forum for people who share a love of, and interest, in Spain. Thanks to the generosity of financial supporters and sponsors, the Society is able to support a number of postgraduate scholarships. Last year, for example, the society awarded five scholarships worth £4,500 each, to students wishing to pursue studies in fields ranging from medicine to architecture.

Information about the application

Applications can be submitted at any time (in the first instance to the Grants Secretary) but the closing date for applications will be 20th January in the year for which the grant is sought.

In considering applications the Council will take into account whether they conform with the objects of the Society, which is a non-political organization whose aim is: ‘to promote friendship and understanding among the peoples of the United Kingdom and Spain through knowledge of each other’s customs, institutions, history and way of life’.

It is intended that the five main scholarships (one for each Principal Supporter) will be awarded in April or May at a reception at the Spanish Embassy in London which successful candidates will be required to attend.

Successful applicants will be asked to submit a short article on their research and experiences for publication in the Society’s Quarterly Review.
