About

The Aziz Foundation has partnered with Wolfson College to fund scholarships for Home-fee-rated students who are actively engaged in British Muslim communities and who wish to study for a Master's degree at the University of Cambridge in order to improve access for individuals from social groups who historically have been underrepresented at the University. An Aziz Foundation Scholarship will cover the University Composition Fee for the course.  The scholarships are aimed at those who are dedicated to community service, social development and effective advocacy within and for British Muslim communities.
