Noon Educational Foundation Oxford Scholarships

Overview

The Noon Educational Foundation was established in 1992 by Lady Viqarunnissa Noon to support scholars from Pakistan to study at leading universities in the United Kingdom. The scholarships at Oxford are funded by the Foundation, the University and a number of generous partners.

Am I eligible?

Applicants should be citizens of Pakistan and be resident in Pakistan. Candidates who have previously studied outside of Pakistan will not normally be considered. Applicants must be planning to return to Pakistan after completing their studies.

Awards are made based on the following key criteria:

Academic merit

Financial need

The potential social contribution made by the applicant on their return to Pakistan
Applicants must be applying to start a course of study at the University.


What does it cover?

The size and duration of awards vary according to each scholar's circumstances. In recent years these have ranged from partial awards (e.g. £3000) to fully funded scholarships (all fees and living costs).


How do I apply?

Graduates:

Apply at the same time as you apply to Oxford by selecting Noon Educational Foundation in the Funding Section of the University's Graduate Application Form. Candidates should apply by Application Deadline 2 (7 January 2011 for Medical Sciences and Philosophy; 14 January 2011 for Said Business School applicants; 21 January 2011 for all other subjects).

You must also attach a short statement with your application setting out (in not more than 200 words) how you intend to contribute to Pakistan on your return, and how your studies in Oxford will help with this.


If you do not apply in full by the deadline, you will not be considered for the scholarship, even if you have selected Noon Educational Foundation on the Graduate Application Form.

Undergraduates

You must apply to UCAS and Oxford as described on the Undergraduate Admissions webpage by 15 October 2010.

You must also complete the Application Form for Undergraduate Scholarships and by the application deadline in order for your application to be complete. The deadline to submit the Application Form for Undergraduate Scholarships is 12 noon on Friday 25 February 2011.

How will I know if I have been successful?

We exepct final award decisions to be available in July 2011.

A notice will appear on here when decisions have been made. If you have not heard from us by the time this notice is posted, then your application to this scheme has been unsuccessful. Due to the volume of applications received, we are unable to contact unsuccessful applicants individually or provide feedback on their applications.
