Hi everybody,
I am curerntly doing my PhD at Middlesex University. I am an International student. I have got about £60,000 funding from Middlesex university and Queen mary university of London on a matched funding sceme for 3yrs, but unfortunately I need to pay the the international fees of about 10,000/yr. so wt ever I get in the form of stipend I am paying it back. I have enqired about ORSAS award from my uni but at the moment they haven't got any. So could any one plzz suggest me a better way getting a small amount of funding from any organisation or charity to pay my fee. I have published two papers as well. I have searched for many charities and funding bodies in finda PhD and postgraduatestudentship.co.uk, but thwy are too specific. It would be grewat if any one gives me a good solution for this friends. Cheers.

It would help (greatly) if you'd put your academic area. Saying that, I would imagine you've probably exhausted all the typical avenues yourself, by the sound of it.

Tnx for your msg. I am presently working on prostate oncology.

Hi there, I'm a bit confused- shouldn't you have £30k left over after paying fees?

Hi ruby,That 30K I need to use for my consumables.
