Assistance and Fee Remissions at Queen Margaret's

Our aim is to encourage applications from applicants with as diverse a range of backgrounds as possible. We are committed to widening access by enabling girls, who would not otherwise be able, to join the School, and to allow students to remain in the event of an unforeseen change in a family’s financial circumstances. This can take the form of either assisted (partial remission) or transformational (significant or full remission) bursaries. We do not, however, offer bursaries or fee remissions to international students.

We welcome applications for bursaries from any family based in the UK who might, under ordinary circumstances, not consider Queen Margaret’s for their daughter for financial reasons. However, bursarial funds are limited and applications are, therefore, reviewed on a case-by-case basis.

Further information about means-tested bursaries is available from the Admissions Team: admissions@queenmargarets.com. All applications are treated in the strictest of confidence.
