I have missed the funding deadline, what can I do?

Unfortunately, if you have not submitted an application before the funding deadline, you will not be considered for the majority of University funds.

There may be some funding opportunities available, but please note that this will be very limited and there is no guarantee of funding.

The Postgraduate Funding Search can help you find funding opportunities that do not require you to have applied for funding as part of your course application. These funds will have deadlines of their own, so please keep this in mind. 

Our external funding and loans page has information on how to find funding outside of the University.

Cambridge also offers funded studentships and research projects that typically sit outside of the usual admissions process. You can find them listed on the Funded Studentships page.

Some departments may offer Teaching or Research Assistantships, though these are rare. You will need to speak to the department directly about this.
