Undergraduate scholarships and prizes

Scholarships and prizes for academic achievement

Undergraduates who achieve a First Class in University examinations (or equivalent in unclassed examinations) are awarded both a Scholarship and a Prize.

Scholarships are for one year and will be honorary if not continuing to study at Fitzwilliam.  If returning for Postgraduate studies at Fitzwilliam College studying for a Master’s Degree the value of the 1912 Senior Scholarship will be £175; and if studying for a Ph.D., it will instead be a College Senior Scholarship of £350.

Prizes are worth a further £175 (except the Mary Lucking Prize; value £350), so that the reward for a First Class Tripos Result is generally £350.

Scholarships are held for the academic year following the award. Scholars are also invited to attend the Commemoration Dinner in April.
