Fully Funded PhD: common questions

What should a fully funded PhD offer include?

Check that it covers your tuition and provides living-cost support for the stated funded period. Read the award conditions for the fee rate, stipend, duration and any costs you still need to meet.

How does PhD Success Academy support my application?

We assess your academic profile, shortlist suitable universities and supervisors, prepare research-area proposals and an academic CV, support supervisor outreach and interviews, and help with applications and suitable funding routes.

Which countries can I explore?

Our country selector brings together the UK, USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and Europe. Choose a destination to read its PhD application guidance.

Does a supervisor’s positive reply confirm my scholarship?

A positive reply may be a useful step towards an application, but admission and funding are separate decisions. Check the formal admission and funding offers before making plans.

What information is needed for the free assessment?

Share your qualifications, research interests, relevant experience and academic documents through the Fully Funded PhD assessment. The form has five steps, with optional sections for publications and other achievements.

Do you also help with Master of Research applications?

Yes. We provide Master of Research guidance alongside our core Fully Funded PhD service. Use the research degree country selector or contact our team to discuss programme fit and requirements.
