LIST OF AWARDS          

FOUNDATION GRANTS

FfWG offers Foundation Grants to help women graduates with their living expenses (not fees) while registered for study or research at an approved institution of higher education in Great Britain . The criteria are the proven needs of the applicant and their academic calibre.  For the academic year 2012 - 2013 grants will only be given for a postgraduate doctoral award e.g. PhD or D.Phil . They are not likely to exceed £6,000.  All our grants are offered on a needs basis and therefore not all grants will be for £6,000.   Closing date for the return of applications: Wednesday 4 April 2012 .  Those who have received a Foundation Main Grant in the past are not eligible to apply.
