You can apply for funding at any time from SIET. Typically, we make grants to those 'made or shaped' in Scotland and seeking to study overseas at a postgraduate level. The next round of awards will be made in the spring.

Evan Rush's story is typical of the extraordinary young people SIET is able to support. After studying law at the University of Glasgow, using what he describes as 'a widening access route' then, with some help from SIET, he's started an LLM at New York University.

"Belonging is not about fitting into one box, it’s about finding your identity and thriving in a way that spans oceans, cultures and time zones."
