Scholarships for vulnerable groups, including asylum seekers and refugees
Student Action for Refugees (STAR) has compiled a list of universities and colleges offering scholarships, bursaries, fee waivers/reductions for people who have claimed aslylum in the UK. Different eligibility and criteria may apply depending on whether you are still waiting for a decision on your asylum claim or you have been granted refugee status, Discretionary Leave to Remain or another form of temporary leave resulting from an asylum claim. The webpage warns that if you have come to the UK “through a resettlement scheme for Afghan nationals (ARAP or ACRS) or through visa routes for Ukrainians, you may not be eligible for these scholarships” but it is advised that you look through the list anyway in case you are eligible for one of the schemes.
